Register now for Fall Term 2017

BIG SI offers a variety of courses of different levels and types of improvisation. Starting in the Fall of 2017, we are changing the structure of our curriculum. Rather than a linear path (Level 1, Level 2, etc), students will now have the flexibility to choose their own path in improv instruction, and take courses in the order they choose. For more information about offerings and requirements, please look at the new curriculum plan.
