The Teen Ensemble is for students ages 14-18 who have improv and/or acting experience and want to develop and perform in an original show with an ensemble. This class gives you the full experience of developing a Second City revue. Students will experience the thrills and frustrations that come from creating something from nothing. It is a great experience that teaches many life lessons. Students will walk away having accomplished something that not many people have done.

This is the highest-level performance class for youth and teens so students will build on skills they have already learned. There is still opportunity to learn new things depending on the individual student?s background. For example, if a student has a background in improv they will learn more about acting or music. There are also many life lessons to be learned about working closely with other people and performing in front of a crowd.

This class involves creating an approximately twenty-five minute long original Second City-style revue. You will work within an ensemble, you will create songs with a Musical Director, and you will develop scenes and play performance-level improv games.
