The Armando – mini-course

Learn a classic improv form and explore scenes inspired by true stories.

In this mini-course we’ll be exploring classic improv form The Armando.

Chris Read from Dogface Improv will be teaching us how to create scenes inspired by monologues. 

It’s a two-week course (is that even a course?!) with an ace visiting teacher

Who is this for?

Our mini-courses are for improvisers who want to raise their level by developing more advanced skills.

If you’re still getting the hang to improvising successful scenes, then we suggest you join a drop-in class or wait for the next beginners course in Autumn 2026.

If you’re in any doubt if the mini-course is right for you, drop us a line.
