The Danger Room

Improvisation is an art, which means, as improvisers,
we're artists. The Danger Room assumes that your
experiences and what you create with others (and what
both inspire in you) are what matters and what makes
your art worth experiencing.

We'll facilitate the process by taking part in
exercise meant to stress deceptively simple
fundamentals and to challenge students. Overall,
though, our phasers will be set on "fun" and we'll
have a total blast!

Instructor: JosÃ© Gonzalez
Class dates & time: Monday April 28th 6-9
Location: ColdTowne Theater
Cost: $10
Class size: 9 students

JosÃ© is a supersweet coach and is worth much more than ten dollars. If you need a little reminder of why doing improv is the single best thing in the world, you should get to this workshop. I know I plan to.

Thanks for the kind words!

I have a lot of improv love to share!

Sharing is always more fun than keeping it to yourself!

I was thinking about doing this, but I have now officially branded myself too sick to do stuff for a couple of days.
