Theatre: The program is titled Improv(e) in Everything. The primary art form is improvisation and can be implemented into theatre, or leadership class. Students will be on their feet and discuss their thoughts, and observations were during improv warm-up games and exercises. Through their participation in the exercises and the discussions, they will learn more about themselves and others, in turn creating a stronger connection with their peers.

Theatre: Bored with kids is one of the worst positions to be in as a parent, mentor, or guardian. Let's explore why the disconnect happens with young kids (and not-so young kids) and see what happens when we accept the boredom. In this program we will use improv principles to re-inspire the playfulness that will drastically reduce boredom.
