ReWired
Now in its fifth year, Workshop's improvisational comedy team for young people receives high-quality, intensive improv and sketch comedy training, and will participate in showcases at Workshop Theatre; perform for groups and festivals around the Midlands and statewide; and work on filmed sketches that can be shown on the "big screen." Team members meet weekly as a group to hone their skills, learn new techniques and create sketches.Give ’Em a Path...
