IMPROV-ABILITY! – Get ready to perform WITHOUT A SCRIPT! Perform off the cuff, as we create AND perform in front of an audience. Like the hit TV show, “Whose Line Is It Anyway?” the actors will take cues from the audience and create a story on the spot. Incorporate a vocal flash mob, a little Harlem Shake, and you have an edgy performance that is entirely unique and sure to entertain!
*Each group will have a break midway during the workshop. They may bring their own snacks to eat/drink while they relax.
