What is Improv?

Improvisational theatre, often called improvisation, improv, or impro, is the form of theatre, often comedy, in which most or all of what is performed is unplanned or unscripted, created spontaneously by the performers.

Improv developed in the mid-20th century out of the experimental theater movement. Drawing inspiration from drama exercises designed for children, the pioneers of Improv explored concepts like “Yes, and…” and began creating improvised sketches from audience suggestions. Through play, a codified set of “rules” developed, and students of the original pioneers began to spread this new form of comedic performance, Improv, around the world!

This workshop is presented in partnership with Texas Comedy Festival.
