Buddy conducts a fun and very constructive class in improvisation. I've been going to pretty regularly, the last 6 months. I have definitely grown as a performer in that time.
Every actor should have a firm grasp of improv, and every serious actor should take Buddy’s improv classes. Beyond solid improv and performance skills (like affirmation, physicality, “who/what/where”, and how to find and play the “game” of a scene), he will teach you confidence.

Every actor should have a firm grasp of improv, and every serious actor should take Buddy’s improv classes. Beyond solid improv and performance skills (like affirmation, physicality, “who/what/where”, and how to find and play the “game” of a scene), he will teach you confidence. Confidence in creating a character. Confidence in working with other actors on a stage or set. Confidence in using space, finding rhythm to a scene, and knowing how to let go of rigidity, fear, and your own limitations. Buddy digs down deep. He’s just the best in town.
Bu de is an amazing improv teacher who is always welcoming and supportive to new students and provides fun challenges to veteran performers. I cannot recommend his classes enough.

In my over thirty years of involvement in the broad improv community, I find that Buddy McQueen is on my short list of the most passionate, dedicated and knowledgeable improvisation teachers out there. His genuine love of the craft is palatable from the get. He can break it down for beginners, including kids, as well as deepen the art for advanced students with deft leadership. He's always organized, ready to hit the ground running and working with him will always inspire you to up your game. Not just in improv, but across the board. He's quality 100%.
These (Buddy’s) improv classes and drop-ins were something I looked forward to several times per week! The class was held in an out-of-the-box style which made way for magic to happen. Whether you are new to improv or a veteran improviser, you will feel welcome and supported!
