Intro to Improv with Lauren Burawski: Beginner Workshop in Wilmington
This class is framed for people interested in improv’s uses offstage as well as for those curious about performing. City Theater Company points to collaboration, problem-solving and creative responses in everyday life; on May 29, Lauren Burawski leads a beginner workshop that also comes with admission to one Fearless Improv show.
An introduction with uses beyond acting
The workshop covers fundamental principles of improvisational performance and aims to build acting ability. City Theater Company also presents improv as a way to practice working with others, solving problems and responding creatively—so the advertised appeal isn’t limited to people who want to take the stage.
The listing requires no theater or comedy background. It does not describe specific exercises or promise a particular skill outcome, making this a first step into the subject rather than a detailed syllabus.

The included show connects the class to CTC’s improv work
The $30 enrollment includes admission to one Fearless Improv show at The Delaware Contemporary. City Theater Company identifies Fearless Improv as part of its improvisational comedy work, alongside its New Work Series, which provides a forum for local original work.
The workshop listing does not identify which Fearless Improv performance the admission covers or when it can be used. CTC’s visitor guide says its Black Box seats are unassigned and selected on arrival, although some seats may be reserved for volunteers or sponsors. It also notes that bar purchases—including snacks and drinks—may be brought into the theater, while outside food and drink are not permitted.
