WELCOME TO THE TRAINING CENTER
PHILLY IMPROV THEATER CLASSES ARE RETURNING!

 

Hello! Thanks for checking out the PHIT Training Center Class Offerings.
We are excited to announce that in-person classes are scheduled to return in Fall 2022.

 

With new leadership, new instructors, and fresh energy we are currently in the planning stages for offering adult level improv classes and workshops for both new and returning students starting this fall.

 

Registration for classes and free intro workshops will be open by mid-summer. Be among the first to know when registration for classes or workshops is announced by signing up for our email list. Or feel free to check back with this page.

 

PHIT continues to monitor the guidance from public health agencies and Philadelphia City officials regarding our re-opening. The safety of all of our patrons, staff, and instructors is a high priority. To that end, all instructors will be fully vaccinated. Please review our health and safety policies.

Since 2005, the comedy classes at Philly Improv Theater have been turning ordinary Philadelphians, from all walks of life, into extraordinary performers, on stage – and off! Whether you’re dreaming of a career in comedy or exploring how comedy can help you in your dream career, classes at the Training Center at Philly Improv Theater are a fun, social way to gain comedic talents that translate to success on life’s many stages!
