No Script. No Pressure. Just Fun!

A Beginner Improv Workshop with Denise Howard

Have you ever wondered what improv is? Improvisation is unscripted theatre where scenes are created in the moment through imagination, collaboration, and the simple principle of “Yes, and…” Above all, it’s about having fun.

This beginner-friendly workshop introduces the fundamentals of improv through interactive games and exercises designed to build confidence, creativity, communication, and teamwork. Along the way, you’ll strengthen your listening skills, trust your instincts, and connect with others in a supportive, judgment-free environment.

No experience is necessary—just bring your curiosity, a willingness to participate, and get ready to laugh, play, and discover something new!
