Description: Improv I is a fun, high energy weekly workshop for anyone wanting to think quickly on their feet, looking for cheap therapy, or just want to have a good laugh! Through simple, fun games, students learn the fundamentals of improvisation. Improv helps with team building, interpersonal relationships, and making folks crack up in the boardroom. We work on saying "YES" to life's curveballs, accepting suggestions, and learning to trust your instincts. Improvisational comedy probably won’t pay your bills, but it will help you be a better human being. No prior experience in theatre or improv is required. Students with significant improv or theatrical experience can sign up for Improv 2, or are welcome and encouraged to start fresh in Improv 1. After all, we never stop learning! Come join the FUN!
