Improv workshops

This class will give students the rudiments of improv; the seat of all comedy. Kids will get to play in an off-the-top-of-their- heads, always say “Yes” kinda way.
Challenging and fun, students will learn games and strategies that will help them think on their feet, and build good communication skills, all the while having a great time.
