CORPORATE WORKSHOPS – Team Building, Leadership, Sales and Customer Service Skills Training

IMPROV WORKSHOPS are amazing tools to develop strong teams and leaders, replacing 1000s of books and lectures that merely discuss concepts, goals and techniques. Simply playing these games develops creativity, critical thinking, public speaking, self confidence, self awareness, listening, focus and more. We teach all to replace ego and insecurities with simple choices, active listening and supporting team. These are all cornerstones of “YES! And…” the #1 governing principle behind Improvisation. YES AND… Improv is also the best route to Psychological Safety, the #1 factor in Team Success. The #1 skill in comedy is LISTENING, which is also the #1 factor in a good leader. We use a version of these workshops to train team building, leadership, sales, customer service, conflict resolution, professional development for teachers, medical staff and more. Ideal for 5 to 30 participants, this workshop fits anywhere your team can stand in a circle including a small conference room or private home.

YES AND… THE EXPERIENCE

YES AND… THE EXPERIENCE is a 100% immersive improv comedy game show, hosted by one of our professional teaching artists with years of comedy experience. Guests are invited to the stage to play a series of games. In many ways this is a hybrid show and master class in Improv, the ultimate in EDUTAINMENT. While the guests experience a show, all emerge with many of the benefits of a workshop. This show has been popular at team building events, corporate and family gatherings at restaurants or event private homes and offices. Ideal for 10-100 guests.

Interactive Improv Comedy Shows

Come be a part of the show as the cast of EIGHT IS NEVER ENOUGH delivers hilarious interactive musical comedy, original skits & songs, improvised on the spot based on audience suggestions and participation. No two shows are ever the same.

Our newest show combines the power of improvisation and the popularity of true crime comedy drama. The opening minutes are akin to our popular game HUMAN MAD LIBS and the first scene of any LAW & ORDER episode. Using the guests to fill in the blanks, the entire audience helps establish a crime, naming a fictional victim, and building crime scene details. For the next 20-30 minutes the detective runs around the room and briefly interrogates guests, each assigned a character in our story. Each encounter delivers inspiration for another character. We meet the mayor, chief of police, forensics, coroner, family, friends, coworkers, teachers and other potential witnesses. Before long many guests (perhaps all for smaller events) have been part for the show. At this point, the detective identifies 3-5 stand outs as our prime suspects. The audience is deputized and broken into teams to interrogate suspects, collaborate and deliberate a final solution to the crime. Our detective reads many of the solutions aloud and picks a winning team. We present silly prizes to the winning team and the best actor, voted by your peers.
