    Sundays, April 27th- June 1st 2025, 1:45 PM -3:45 PM

    No class on 5/25 (Memorial Day Weekend)

    Improv helps kids become more creative, more spontaneous, more open to change, and more tolerant of uncertainty.

    The basic skills of improvisational theatre are: spontaneity, listening, making your partner look good, and "yes, and" (building with what is present in the moment.)  

    In a fast paced class packed with games and exercises, kids learn to create and collaborate with a team. These attributes are identified as key to becoming successful in today's world.  

    Oh, and by the way-- our classes are huge fun, too!

  • Real Life Improv

    May 10th 8 PM Real Life, The Improv

    Reality TV, sure. Reality…Improv? Selected audience volunteers do a talk-show style interview to fuel the improv.


    The Mop & Bucket Co. presents their acclaimed format, Real Life, The Improv! The format, first developed by the company in 2014, features volunteer audience members.

    Unlike real life, Real Life is basically a simple show. A talk-show style interview on one side of the stage is interspersed with improvised reactions by the company. As the show bounces back and forth between the interview and the responses, a rich, (though certainly non-literal) portrait of a real person’s life develops.

  • Crime

    May 16th 8 PM Crime Alley: Sketch Comedy Show

    The Capital Region’s most talked about sketch comedy group CRIME ALLEY! is back at The MopCo Improv Theatre!

    Crime Alley is a sketch comedy group known for sharp wit, absurd humor, and fearless satire, delivering fast-paced, unpredictable sketches that keep audiences laughing.
