Class Description: If you're only playing game, you're missing out. Play the world. Connect to the environment. Change your voice, your body, your face. There's a whole world in your scenes, and learn to use it to supercharge your scenes. Monika has studied extensively at UCB and Second City and other schools --- all of these lessons come to bear on her approach to improv.
