Improv For Everyone: Communications & Creativity
ImprovBoston’s expert improvisers use the art of comedy and hands-on entertainment to actively explore four of the most important concepts in education today: communication, collaboration, creativity and critical thinking. This fast-paced, engaging highly interactive performance features all the entertainment value of a professional comedy show while fostering important curricular discoveries throughout the journey. Students take the stage alongside the ImprovBoston cast for an unforgettable hour of supported risk-taking. Customized to each grade level, this program seamlessly blends laughter, learning, music and off-the-cuff theater to show the many ways we are all improvisers, performing each and every day without a script.
