    Come Join The Fun

    Our #1 rule is HAVE FUN but never at another’s expense, so our mission is to spread joy and laughter one show, one class at a time. However, simply playing improv comedy games develops creativity, critical thinking, public speaking, self confidence, listening, focus and more. We use these same games to train team building, leadership, sales, customer service and professional development programming for teachers, as well as k12 educational outreach.

    Private Events

    We daily host corporate teams and student groups from around the world for private workshops at our Times Square NYC theater. We also tour schools, offices and venues DC to Boston, Montauk to Pittsburgh and beyond. Contact us today for a free consultation, or go ahead and send us dates and rates requests. NYC DOE VENDORS
