improv online

Keep socialising and having fun with improv with our online classes, courses, socials, jams, shows and more!

Our improv classes are now back in real-life instead of online, but our sketch courses are still running online.

Hoopla’s purpose is to bring the joy of improv to everyone. We aim to make improv fun, friendly, sociable, open and accessible to all. Improv for everyone!

We’re aiming to keep this going through this crazy year with a fun selection of online improv classes, sketch comedy courses, stand up comedy courses, improv shows, jams, online parties and socials.

Most of all we’re aiming to help give you a break from things, meet some new people, and have a massive laugh with improv!

in the news!

Our online classes have recently been recommended by The Guardian, The Evening Standard, Grazia, Chortle, The Londonist, BBC Radio 2 and more!
