The improv gym. Drill solo, warm up with games, and run scenes with a partner. Improv Practice is a training tool for improvisers. Open it up and you can practice three ways: PRACTICE SOLO 63 improv exercises with a timer and a continuous drill mode. Word-association drills, character embodiment, monologues, gibberish work.. the fundamentals, always available, no partner needed. MEET A SCENE PARTNER IN THE GREEN ROOM When you want live scene work, step into the green room. Raise your hand and you'll appear by stage name so others know who's up for a scene. See someone you'd like to play with? Tap their name and the scene starts. You always choose your partner, and your camera stays off until a scene begins. Made a great scene partner? Add them as a friend and cue them next time you want to play. RUN SCENES AND WARM-UP GAMES TOGETHER Once you're connected, you and your partner get synced scene generators.. the same relationship and location at the same moment, so you're always on the same page. Warm up first with two-person games: one-word story, word association, theme words, 3-line scenes. THE NIGHTLY MEETUP The green room is busiest at 7 PM Central. Turn on a reminder and you'll get one ping when the window opens. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Video is peer-to-peer. It streams directly between you and your partner, never through our servers, and is never recorded or stored. SAFE BY DESIGN You must be 18 or older. Everyone in the green room appears by name. Every scene has Report and Block one tap away. Zero tolerance for harassment, hate, nudity, or anything illegal. Block someone and you'll never be paired again. Free. No ads. No tracking. Warm up. Find a partner. Run the scene.
