Improv Institute

Please note that this group is no longer active. However, if you're interested in playing around and learning improv, watch the front page or the calendar for news about the Improv Club!

Shamelessly stolen from Stephen Wagner's e-mail:

Ever wanted to learn more about the techniques and skills behind performing improv? Maybe you're shy and want to find a way to get out of your shell? Perhaps you just want a chance to learn from and play with OU's own nationally-recognized improvisational comedy and performance troupe? Well, here's your chance to accomplish these goals and many more...

O.U. Improv! presents the Improv Institute: a series of weekly classes focused on teaching you the methods behind the madness that is improvisational comedy and theater. Improv is a fun and challenging art form that encourages creativity, imagination, and in-the-moment problem solving. It builds confidence and improves group dynamics by fostering an atmosphere of cooperation, support, and complete trust. And most importantly, IT'S FUN!!!

The Institute is free and open to the public. Some material may not be appropriate for all ages.
