We throwing it back, way back to Improv Throwdown.  You may remember this little ditty as the short form show we ran from basically the Red Bar through our current theater.  We have been taking a hiatus from the show for over a year now because our Saturday early show time slot needed a bit of a make over.  So we called the Queer Eye guys in and the Fab Five said bring in the long form.  We were settling into a nice pace before the shut down in that time slot highlighting different monthly shows and teams.

We always knew Throwdown would probably make a come back, we just didn't know when.  As we got deeper into the theater closure, it seems like the perfect time to try and do new and old things.  So it's time (cue the Alan Parsons Project, Sirius): the bell is back, the puns are back, and New Choices are back.  It's a Throwback Throwdown!  We went out and connected with some of our original cast members and even brought in a ringer who lives across the country.  Join us Friday night at 7pm to celebrate a TIM tradition, a golden oldie, Improv Throwdown!

Sketch Writing 101: Writing Basics (Digital Edition)

Sunday, June 21st with Amanda Tennyson

Over six weeks, students will learn the basics of writing comedy sketches. We will discuss: generating comedic ideas, formulating with a premise, the game of the sketch and sketch revision. Students will write smart two person scenes grounded in reality, and have fun doing it under the TIM Comedy Philosophy!

This will be a Digital Correspondence version of the class. Students will get one content module per week with reading and exercises to complete. They will receive weekly feedback from the instructor via email, and also there will be an optional once per week digital office hours (Wednesdays 6-7pm) where students can join a video conference call to chat with their instructor and classmates about questions they have on the course material.
