Keith in London 2018 (10 Day Intensive)
Having successfully brought Keith over to the UK for the last 12 years I am pleased to announce that I have organised for Keith to come to London for his first ever 10 day Impro School in 2018.
This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to work with Keith this intensively giving you the chance to work in depth. There will be 1 group for a full consecutive 10 days and strictly 1 course. Maximum group size is 25.
This is now Keith's only course on his 2018 schedule.
There will be the opportunity to explore London's Impro scene & no doubt a theatre excursion or two.

Keith’s Bio
Keith is one of the few internationally recognized authorities in the field of improvisation, great chunks of which he created, including improvisation forms that include Theatresports, Maestro Impro, Gorilla Theatre, and the Life Game. Theatresports is known worldwide, and London’s Improbable Theatre Co. (directed by Phelim McDermot) recently played the National Theatre and toured the UK with the Life Game to excellent reviews.
His book Impro, and Impro For Storytellers, have been translated into many languages.
He worked at London’s Royal Court Theatre for its ten most revolutionary years (1956-1966), beginning as a reader of plays and ending as an Associate Director (with William Gaskill).
He has taught at many European Theatre Schools, including six years at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, and each spring for fifteen years at the Stattensteatre Skole in Copenhagen.
Places where he has taught since November 1998 include San Francisco, Brisbane, Sydney, Seattle, London, Hong Kong, Austin (Texas), and Tokyo. He has recently returned from lecturing at the Deuches Institute for Provocative Therapy, and from teaching “clinic clowns” in the Bavarian Alps.
He founded the Theatre Machine improvisation group, the International Theatresports Institute, and was Co-founder of Calgary’s Loose Moose Theatre.
He is a Professor Emeritus at Calgary University.
