Will Luera - International Improv Director
Lights, camera, improv! Station Theater proudly welcomes internationally acclaimed director and improv innovator Will Luera for two unforgettable nights of comedy creativity. On Tuesday, dive into the fast-paced world of Big Bang free-form with Follow the Funny, where every beat leads to a brand-new scene. Then on Wednesday, hit the stage like it’s the silver screen in Blue Screen Improv, a cinematic-style format that turns edits, genres, and special effects into live movie magic. Take one or both—each workshop offers a unique chance to play boldly, think cinematically, and connect through spontaneous storytelling.

Free Form Improvisation
FOLLOW THE FUNNY
Tuesday, 6/24/2025 | 8:00 - 10:00 pm
This workshop explores the makings of the unique style of Big Bang free-form improvisation. This mindset is built on the concept of "follow the funny" and proposes that every single moment, beat, line and movement in a show can be deconstructed and used to lead you to the next scene. During this exploration and deconstruction of content, a language and pattern are established that help define form where previously there was no form.
Blue Screen Improv
A UNIQUE MOVIE-STYLE FORMAT
Wednesday, 6/25/2025 | 8:00 - 10:00 pm
A workshop that focuses on the unique movie style format of Blue Screen. Learn how to translate movie edits and terminology to the improv stage so that you can put on your own unique improvised movie. The workshop will look at how to execute various different camera shots, genres and special effects using only the tools of improvisation. The class is modeled after the successful show, “Blue Screen” which has run three times as a showcase at ImprovBoston and at festivals around the world.
