Since our inception, one of our goals has been to bring talented and experienced improvisers from other cities, particularly Los Angeles, to teach at FCI every single month.
Why spend 6-7 hours in a car to go to LA to take a class when we can bring our favorite instructors to San Diego!?

Want to be a visiting artist?

Dedicated to continual growth, we invite master instructors from near and far to teach intensives and in-depth workshops. Most workshops are 3 or more hours and some are even 2-day intensives. We offer housing, usually at the attached Lafayette Hotel, invite you to play in a show with one of our teams (or bring yours!), and provide standard instructor pay. If you have been performing and teaching improv for more than five years and have a record of success teaching at theaters and/or festivals submit your interest to us! Artists are generally booked 5-7 months in advance. We invite at at least one per month but spots still fill up fast!
