You may have heard improvisers talk about in reverent tones about this mysterious thing called “The Harold”

What is it? How does it work? Why is it called “The Harold”

Not only will this 6-week course answer all those questions, but it will turn you into a Harold ninja. It will provide you with the knowledge and skills to perform this classic format, and at the same time improve your improv scene-work, boost your confidence, and arm you with tools to perform any kind of longform improv. Time to take your improv to the next level!

*spoiler – a Harold is a structure for a longform improvised show, lasting around 20-30 minutes. It is a format into which any style and kind of show can be slotted, and a scaffold for all sorts of improv shennanigans.  It was created in the USA about 60 years ago, and is still being taught and performed around the world.
