• Currently Reading At Risk By Patricia Cornwell see related

  
  
  

  Today was the first class of Level 3 Improv.  I have learned quite a bit in those three short hours and feel I have already grown as an improviser.  Our instructor for this level is one I had before when I had attended the New York Film Academy and was looking forward to having him again.  He doesn’t believe in the usual “improv games” that many of the other instructors and many improv schools use, so most of our time will be geared towards actual scene work.  I find this to be a positive alternative experience.  Another positive is that there are only eleven people total signed up for the class with only seven of us showing up.  This is a far better situation compared to some classes I have attended in which there were sixteen of us.

   

  Some commuting difficulties…

   

  The 1 line doesn’t run on the weekends due to construction work so I need to take the R train up (local) and then walk quite a few blocks to the class.  I am going to need to leave thirty minutes earlier than I did so I am not late if one of the trains or the ferry is delayed at all.  I arrived five minutes after the class was scheduled to begin.

   

  The trip home was delayed by thirty minutes.  For some reason the Ferry was cancelled so I had to wait for the next one.  Also…the conductor on the SIRR managed to miss my stop on Staten Island and had to actually back up the train…what a nitwit.
