Service Description
WHAT IS MUSICAL IMPROV? This course is for those who always dreamed of bursting into song like you're in a Broadway show ✨ In this 12-week course, you’ll learn the building blocks of musical improv — no experience (or perfect pitch) needed. From chorus lines to power ballads, we’ll explore classic musical tropes, song structures, and how to turn your favorite tunes into fully improvised showstoppers. Whether you're a stage star or a dedicated shower soloist, everyone’s welcome. Come sing, laugh, and discover the joy of making up musicals on the spot! 🎶 🎵 Should you have musical or improv experience? No! Just willingness to learn and openness to fail. 📆 SCHEDULE This course takes place on Wednesday nights, 19:30-21:30. It runs from Wednesday 23 September 2026 to Wednesday 9 December 2026, with a showcase on Thursday 10 December. All classes will take place at de Theaterschool, except for 21 October (herftvakatie). 💸 PRICE 350€ regular price. 380€ supporter price. 310€ solidarity price for low-income folks.
