Join us for a recurring drop-in jam for female/femme, trans, nonbinary, Two Spirit, intersex, and/or any other gender non-conforming folx and/or gender minorities. The intention of this jam is to:1) build and empower a local network of trans, NB, intersex, and female/femme performers and
2) provide a space for folx to collectively explore improv outside of cis-male dominated spaces and experience a style of play that centers community, kindness, and joy.
Folks of all experience levels will be welcome to join. The cost for this jam will help cover costs of renting the Geery Theater and time for the host/coach.
