What is Improv Theater?

Improvisation promotes collaboration, inventiveness, and the ability to deal with unexpected situations with a positive attitude and humor.

KING'S WHIM
The king wants a play. He doesn't know what he wants but he wants it now. A playwright and a jester must agree to create a story that pleases the king and they only have 30 minutes to please the king's whim. Your life depends on it.
This improvised play highlights the importance of oral tradition and storytelling through two different and conflicting characters: a calm, cerebral playwright, and a deranged, physical jester.
