long-form improv

Long-form improv is a type of improvisational theater where performers create a cohesive, original performance based on a single suggestion or theme. Unlike shorter scenes, long-form establishes characters, relationships, and story arcs that develop over an extended period, often lasting 20 minutes or more. This style emphasizes storytelling, emotional depth, and character development, allowing for more complex and interconnected scenes. The focus is on collaboration, spontaneity, and illustrating a narrative through improvisation, making each performance unique and unscripted.
