Join Highwire Improv for a community improv jam. Open to all levels, we'll get settled with introductions, some group warm-ups, and a boundaries check-in to make sure we're all ready to play our best with one another. Everyone will get a chance to privately share their comfort level with improv, and then we'll be sorted into teams with a mix of folks from beginner to experienced. Each team will get time on stage while the rest of the groups cheer, laugh, and support. We'll start with straightforward two-person improv scenes before building up to more advanced moves like walk-on characters and group scenes. After each team has had their turn, we'll all share some things that made us laugh, and folks will be free to hang out, chat, and connect with some new and old improv friends!
