If you're scared of improv, this is the show for you!
Every 3rd Tuesday of the month, we'll do an improv playshop and show based on the theme of anxiety.
PLAYSHOP: Come at 7 and try out some improv exercises designed to help with anxiety. You'll be with a group of fun, nervous who also kinda don't wanna be there, but kinda do. You’ll laugh and play together. It’ll be fun. Surprisingly fun, considering how scary improv sounds.
SHOW: Then at 8, watch a hilarious improv show!
First up, some fun scenes with a mix of improv veterans, and newbies testing the stage for the first time. (Totally optional, of course, you for sure don’t have to.)
Then, each month we have a special guest speaker to tell tales of anxiety, and an all-star cast of improvisers turn those stories into hilarious comedy.
It’s a pay what you can show (workshop is free!) and all after-cost proceeds go to charity. Each month supports a new mental health charity.
It’s an anxiety-based show, so you won’t be singled out or asked to perform. Just sit back (in the back if you want) and enjoy the show.
