Subject: IMPROV your Life!

It's Time for Your Debut!

Calling all puppets, puppeteers, and performers!

We've got a fun new addition to our ImprovBlox sessions, coming to you LIVE from the Unscrewed Theater Training Center December 5th!

Our very own Jessica Spenny presents Talk to the Hand! a one-day workshop where you'll learn how to create your very own scene partner from items you can find around your very own home.

After you get some basic puppet engineering techniques under your belt, you'll perform a short improv scene with your brand new scene partner.

This unique class will help you tap into your creative construction side AND teach you how to develop and perform with a brand new made up character.

If you're craving EVEN MORE IMPROV...

Don't miss out on our early bird sale on improv classes - on sale NOW.

We've got a new session of Improv Basics AND a new session of Character and Scenework for our more advanced students starting up in January. But if you register before December 4th (which, by the way, is only about two weeks away) you get the early bird price. Check out our website for more info on all these courses and more.
