Dynamics for the Experienced IMPROVISER
Instructor: Cat London
Improvisers will refine their #listening and #adaptation skills, to
let go and approach #comedy as a gang of buddies. Students will
redefine patience, swiping on a high note, and backline etiquette
inside the standard long form structure. We will practice 3-beat game
components, breaking structure, #scene openers, #object #work and
#character #consistency. We will learn how to shake off the fears that
make us second guess our choices, and learn how to say “yes” to
ourselves while saying “yes” to others.

3+ years of college improv, or 2+ years in an active indie troupe.

Cat London is an improv comedian, actress, filmmaker, and musician.
For 12 years, she’s performed alongside comedian Vegas Lancaster as
Cat and Vegas and the Temple of Boom, New Jersey’s weirdest
professional musical improv duo. Beginning their residency in 2015,
Cat and Vegas continue to headline every first Friday at the L’Etage
Theater for The Comedy Show Gates of Philadelphia. Cat and Vegas
perform for weddings, comedy rooms, and improv festivals like
Philly’s Duofest, Toronto’s Big City Improv Fest, Washington
D.C.’s District Improv Fest, Bethlehem's Steelstacks, and NYC’s
PIT Improv Fest. They are currently partnered with Long Branch Trolley
of Monmouth County, NJ. The duo sings on pristine Mr. Rogers-style
trolleys for a very theatrical ride down the Jersey Shore.
Cat began improvising at The College of New Jersey with The Mixed
Signals, and later performed in various long-form and short-form
troupes like Shave and a Haircut, Bit Players of Newport, RI, and
Howdy Stranger of Hackensack, NJ. In 2017, General Electric Lighting
hired Cat to perform a 3-hour Facebook Live Creator's Circle where she
wrote 10+ comedic songs about light bulbs based on the audience’s
one-word suggestions. In 2018, she graduated from the Advanced Study
courses at the Upright Citizen’s Brigade Improv Theater of NYC.
