7:00 – 8:30 The Improv Lab begins
8:30 – -9:30 Refreshments, mingle
Join us for an open studio session exploring an improvisational practice rooted in generosity, where the goal is to make each other look brilliant.
Whether you’re improv-curious, brand new, or an experienced performer, you’re invited to step inside the process: observe, jump in, or both.
In this intimate studio setting, we’ll connect, play, and build something together in real time. Expect about 90 minutes of collaborative storytelling, discovery, and low-pressure play.
