Intermediate Longform Improv Course (203) w/ TBC Improv UK - Winter '27

TBC Improv UK are running an intermediate longform improv course at Summerhall this winter, starting Wednesday 13 January. It's an eight-session course for over-18s, with classes running Wednesday evenings from 6:30pm to 9:00pm on 13, 20, and 27 January; 3, 10, 17, and 24 February; and 3 and 5 March. The whole thing takes place at the TBC UK Studio, EH9 1PL.

To get your bearings with how they do things, TBC Improv UK numbers its courses by level: the 100 series is introductory, the 200 series is intermediate, and the 300 series is advanced. The final digit tells you the class type — 101 is Intro to Improv, 103 is Intro to Longform, and so on. This is course 203, so it's an intermediate longform class. Because it's not a beginner's course, there are prerequisites: you'll need to have completed Intro to Improv 101, Intro to Longform 103, and Intermediate Improv 201 before you sign up.

Gregor is the one teaching this run. He's a professional classically trained actor who's studied, taught, and worked all over the UK, with a performance range that stretches from Shakespeare's protagonists to 'that background tree'. The course wraps up on Friday 5 March with an optional graduation performance, so there's a chance to get what you've been working on in front of an audience.

It costs £175 early bird if you book at least a month in advance, rising to £195 after that. Classes are Wednesday evenings, 6:30pm to 9:00pm, at Summerhall, Edinburgh.
