<p>Monday May 09 2011  2011 Summer Intensive Improv Classes Across the Country</p>
<p>Monday, May 9, 2011 at 2:26PM  An image I found when Googling "improv summer camp" I recently wrote about what appeared to be some kind of twisted endurance test for improv newbies, but it turned out I stumbled upon the wonderful world of improv summer camp. And it's kind of exciting! Several theaters around the country now offer seasonal intensive classes that range from one week to over a month--all at doorbuster pricing too. It's perfect for college students, performers eyeing a relocation, jobless ex-cons, angsty teens who just got in an argument with their parents and are running away, drifters without families, and people with so many vacation days you want to throw up on them--basically everyone! How nice would it be to spend a few weeks in a different city, make some new buds, and get the lay of the land?</p>

<p>> We posted all of our summer intensives in March to give students enough time to plan travel around class dates. We listed a few sections per month, but at this point, most of them are sold out. If someone drops out of a class, their spot is opened up online and registers on a first come first served basis. You can subscribe to our RSS feed in order to be alerted when new spots are available or new classes are listed.feed://newyork.ucbtheatre.com/classes/rss .
