Improv for Teens

Our Improv for Teens program focuses on fundamental improv skills, that promote self confidence, public speaking, and stage presence, as well as explore creativity, and acting skills. Empire strives to create a welcoming learning environment for everyone, where everyone is set up for success on their improv journey. This program will focus on core improv skills: agreement, listening, and being in the moment. Improv for Teens is a great place to start for brand new improvisers and a great place for experienced improvisers to improve their improv skills.

“As a teenager, improvisation was my first introduction to theater and arts in general. Improv gave me self confidence and skills I use as a teacher, at my job, and in daily life. There is nothing else I was introduced to in high school, that I use as often or appreciate as much.” Michael Lewis director Empire Improv.
