CLASS: Annoyance Summer Intensives

 Annoyance 2026 Summer Intensives 

5 day course - 6 hours per day

PART 1:

The Annoyance Training Center teaches students how to develop and maintain a strong individual voice in their improvisation. These intensives will address the initiation of a scene; developing and maintaining strong characters; learning to hold on to your initial choices while at the same time, expanding on (heightening) the choices you have made; and learning to become deft at creating and weaving unexpected, character-based choices into your work.

Annoyance classes challenge the conventional wisdom of the rules of improvisation, examining what’s behind them and how they came to be in the first place. Simply put, we make you the best improviser YOU can be. All of our intensive teachers are ensemble members who have learned and performed with The Annoyance, and thus have first hand experience with the way we approach improvisation.

PART 2: 

Took the Intensive Part 1 and want more? Want to go further with your exploration of our philosophy? This is for you! With this intensive sequel, we go deeper into the teachings of The Annoyance, tackling things like context, group scene work, ensemble and much more.

Prerequisite for Part 2:  Students must have previously completed an Annoyance Part 1 Intensive or have completed AP5 within The Annoyance Training Center
