Big Couch New Orleans

"In the midst of taking classes and eager to take more. This is the place to learn improv in New Orleans, because they help you find your own way instead of telling you what "the" way is and expecting you to fit into it."

"The people at Big Couch are so nice and welcoming. They really love improv and teaching the form to anyone who wants to learn. I never felt out of place here, even though it was my first time doing improv! Very kind people who just love the craft and helping people tap into their inner child."

"I did the free 101 class. It was a great way to discover improv. The space is amazing, just pardon the dust as they put on the finishing touches."

"Taking improv classes at the Big Couch is sure to be one of the best decisions you can make! Apart from being fun, improv is a great way to learn a new skill, build creativity and to challenge yourself. Carrie and Scott create such a beautiful, inclusive space that I can’t even begin to describe. If you are nervous like I was, you should do it. You won’t regret it!"

"I took their free 101 class and it was one of my favorite experiences in New Orleans. Carrie and Scott, our teachers and the co-founders of the company, were so welcoming to all experience levels. They did a great job balancing teaching us how to perform and allowing us time to just get out there and perform! There were people in our class that were outgoing and others that were shy, and I can confidently say that everyone felt comfortable being themselves. No answer is ever wrong in improv—it's great! I will definitely be signing up for the next level of improv with them because I look forward to the class all week long. It feels good to pick up a new hobby as an adult."
