Storytelling Level 1 & 2 Classes at The PIT

I'm excited to be teaching two new storytelling classes at The Peoples Improv Theatre with the phenomenal Michelle Walson. I've been teaching with Michelle for two years now and it's been a great to see so many of our students pursue the craft, several of them even winning Moth Slams in last few months.

Both 8-week courses begin the week of May 13th. More info can be found HERE.
