Who are we?

The Mopco Improv Theatre was established in October 2016 on 10 N. Jay St. in Schenectady. The historic former firehouse underwent a total renovation and is now the Capital Region's premier hub for improv and entertainment. The Mopco offers classes, shows, and special events. The theatre is also the active HQ for Koppett, the organizational development consultancy and world-renowned leader in applied improv.

The Mopco is home to The Mop & Bucket Co., formerly the residential improv company at Proctors for nearly a decade, and voted the Capital Region's best in comedy 3 years in a row and counting, as well as our “other” group, the very other Down the Rabbit Hole.
We offer corporate & private event entertainment and in-school programming in the theatre or other venues. Contact hey@mopco.org for details! .
