Jest Improv Summer Youth Program 2024!

Jest Improv's signature Youth Summer Comedy Program is back to bring the wonder of improv comedy to the youth of Ventura County! This will be a great environment for young people who are looking to explore their comedic voice/comedy acting and/or looking to spend the summer laughing and creating with new friends. These programs are meant for ages 8-17.

Those in the program will explore the fundamentals of improv as taught by the Jest Improv Comedy School and develop skills like creative thinking, self-confidence, listening, getting out of your head, team building, empathy, handling anxiety, and communication, all while having loads of fun! They’re introduced to basic improv games, the art of creating a story as a group and creating fun characters on stage.

The first program will be taking place on June 17th, 19th, 21st, 24th, 26th and 28th with a showcase on June 29th. The second program will take place on July 29th, 31st, Audust 2nd, 5th, 7th, and 9th with the showcase being on August 9th. Each session will be from 10am-2pm. There will be multiple breaks throughout the session with a 30 minute lunch break. Concessions/beverages will be available for the students.

The entire cost of the program will be $250. Your payment of $25 will go towards this cost and you will be responsible for paying the rest of the amount at the door on the first day of class ($225). You will not be able to reserve a spot/deposit for the program after June 10th for the first session and July 22nd for the second session.
