Improvised Sketch Comedy Night features Slacker, Armando, and Jukebox. And no, we aren't calling you names-- Slacker is a great long form improv format we'll be bringing to life, along with an Armando and audience improv Jukebox!

Six Thursdays, starting January 8, 7-9 PM. The fundamentals of improv are deceptively simple. You can learn them in a few hours. (But we warn you, it can take a lifetime to master them.) Improv is a practice that you can engage in on stage and off.

Support your partner. Listen. Blurt! Weave a fresh, engaging story out of thin air. Is improv comedy? Sometimes, sure. But more importantly, it’s connection.

For actors, writers, performers, and folks who have never performed. Prerequisite: Improv 101 or equivalent (talk to us if you aren’t sure.)This class consists of a combination of games and scene-work, with debriefs that enhance your personal experience. Showcase performance on February 13th at 7 PM, free admission for your friends and family.

In a fast paced class packed with games and exercises, you will  learn to create and collaborate with a team.

Classes start Wednesday, Jan. 7 and run though Wednesday Jan. 28
