What is Improv? How has it influenced our culture? Why do people do it.…and come to see it? What is the role of humor and comedy in Improv? These are just a few of the topics we’ll explore together. In addition, corporations like Google, medical schools, and individuals are using Improv training to develop key skills, teamwork, and a creative perspective. Come see why, and experience what Improv is all about. Beware: it might just bring a spark to your life!
