​IMPROV WITH JORDAN GRIFFITHS 
Grades 5TH - 9TH
​Looking for laughs? Tired of gaming? Already finished everything on all of Netflix? We’ve figured out how to bring real, live fun digitally to YOU ! FUN improv classes are 90 minutes of fun and creativity---with other people. All you need is an internet connection and a camera, and we’ll have you “yes, and”-ing in no time. This class will focus on the essentials of improv: spontaneity, listening, agreement, and collaboration. Through games and exercises students will step outside their comfort zone, working together to create original characters and scenes, accessing new corners of their creativity!

 ADULT PLAY READING MEET UP
​Ages 18+
Much like our Teen Play Reading Group - this Play Reading Meetup is for ADULTS (18 +) looking to engage with each other while reading a play out loud.  Since we have been unable to experience theatrical art forms in person, one way to connect is to enjoy the stories, scenes, and characters of the stage as in the written word of the playwright.  Play reading gives you a front-row seat to the real and complex political, cultural, and personal dramas throughout most of history.  You will be transformed by read-speaking the words of characters familiar or new.
So tear yourself away from binge night and join us!!  You will get to be an active participant in the words & drama of a play.  No experience necessary. 

It's Free ~ Sign up below for one or for all! Play will be sent to your registration email before the class.
