| Pictured: April 2008 - 8 Improv runs weekend of classes and shows for Ohio National Guard "Month of the Military Child" at the Marriott in Dublin OH (Columbus). Kids used Improv to help tell their experience with parents deployed to Iraq and elsewhere int he world. Not a dry eye in the room. General awarded Walt Frasier, MC for the weekend, honorary challenge coin. Bring our classes and improv programs to your community! Our improv shows are the coolest way to inspire… Our comedy workshops are the coolest way to introduce… Our artist residencies are the coolest way to develop… Our Professional Development helps your staff build the future… Creativity - Performing, Writing and Thinking out of the box Community - Building Team through better Respect, Communications, Listening, Eye Contact Leadership - Public Speaking, Self Confidence In addition to being great a cultural arts experience, Improv shows, workshops and residencies are the coolest way to get students excited about and teach creative writing and thinking, communications, listening, focus, respect, eye contact, public speaking, and self-confidence. SHOWS – Our cast presents original music and skits created on the spot based on audience suggestions and participation. The shows are so much fun, the students don’t even realize the valuable skills they are learning. Our study guides help teachers prepare students before and follow up with important concepts following the program. WORKSHOPS – 45-60 minutes of fun playing team building and storytelling games that warm up the mind and body to create and work together. These workshops get the students on their feet developing exposition (WHO & WHERE) and rising action (WHAT) for original stories. Students are asked to project and speak clearly so the whole class can hear. YES AND is the main focus, supporting your teammates. RESIDENCIES – 20-hour (one-ten weeks, 2-5 hour sessions) programs prepare a group of students to perform their own show, diving much deeper into performing and creative concepts. Each session begins with warm-up and team activities. Students learn 5-10 classic games for performance. Students also share stories of the life that we develop in to comedy monologues. Our teachers tie in everything we do to writing reports and other activities for everyday classes. PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT – Our Improv Workshops for teachers serve a dual purpose. Team building for your staff AND providing teachers valuable tools to continue the work we begin. A team that enjoys working together gets things done! |
