This group is for improvisers and who want to be better at their craft. Our events are like workshops. We get on our feet and try things out. Typically, events will have a small fee to cover the cost of the room rental and to pay a coach or teacher to lead the rehearsal. Many events are led by Kevin Mullaney, the Artistic Director of the Chicago Improv Festival and the former Artistic Director of the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre in New York.

This is a group for those who want to learn to improvise or already do it. Learn basic skills and principles of improvisation. We start with some warm-up exercises, groups games, and activities in a casual and relaxed environment! It's Fun!

Open to any and all who would like to practice their improv skills, have fun and meet people.
