Improv Comedy is a ton of fun but offers a lot more than the average entertainment options. We daily perform for schools and corporate events. But these events bring so much more than joy and laughter.
Improv Comedy is a community building. Our professional comedic artists pull many of your guests onto the stage and the entire audience helps create the show. You don’t merely watch and laugh. You are engaged on a higher level.
Improv Comedy brings out the best in people. While a lot of “comedy” tears folks down, we inspire. Every show and workshop we do, someone comes over to me and say, “I never expected THAT person to volunteer!”
We reach the toughest crowds because we bring the fun.
Just this past Saturday, we had a decent sized crowd, but they were quiet. We had a variety of ages and folks from all over the country, and at least one group from across the pond in Spain. By the end, a fairly apprehensive teenager exclaimed, “THAT WAS AWESOME!” Music to my ears!
Yesterday I was working with a group of teens from uptown. As the show was about to start, I said put your phones away. It was pulling teeth getting them on stage at first. A few were all buttereified to be on a stage. By the end they were begging to be on stage. By the end of the post show workshop they were all on the edge of their seats focused and listening.
I will admit. That final moment yesterday caught me by surprise. I am good. But something I said in that last moment got them in a way that even surprised me. It was if they suddenly had the discipline of kids in military school BUT were happy to be there. There was a collective moment of attention.
A lot of kids and teens today seem to wear apathy like a badge of honor. Making an effort is frowned upon. It’s not even a cool thing. It’s more of a misinterpretation of how Europe sees work compared to US. Europe values vacation and family time.
Europeans work VERY hard when it’s time. They often set up health care and wages in a way that they don’t need 20 hours of overtime to survive. But at work, for what I have seen, they bring their A GAME.
These teens yesterday, in the very last moment, sat up and listened with their eyes. They suddenly looked like a power team in the boardroom. They looked like a they were ready to take on the world.
I have seen similar results in corporate events. We bring the fun. We bring the community together. Even at holiday parties.
We have team buikding shows and workshops year round at company retreats and 1 day offsites. We weekly drop by New offices and regularly head to DC, Boston and the i95 corridor in between.
But even in those holiday parties strictly designed for fun, an end of the year reward, Improv delivers so much more that joy and laughter.
