RESIDENCIES



We have teachers all over the area every week providing 10-30 students training in Improv Comedy. These students really become leaders at the school. Many big personalities need to find focus. But when they do, they are instoppable in the best possible way. At the end of each 6-15 week session the students are ready to perform a showcase at school. But far more than that they become class/school leaders and better students. They learn how to listen, create and process information. They engage in current events and the worlds. They face their fears and inhibitions and turn weaknesses into strengths. Some of our high school students have become interns and even full time professional company members. One of these students,. Bandon Ford (Queens Prep Academy) got a job teaching theater at a summer camp this year. Another, Noel Olivencia (Prep Academy for Writers) is now managing a food service business AND has appeared on MTV. 

We have current and past residencies at the following...
NEST+m Manhattan
The Summit School
JCC Manhattan
Queens Prep Academy
Flushing High School
Prep Academy for Writers
Renaisance High School (Harlem)

Don't take our word for it...
Regarding shows, workshops and residencies - Lisa Palotti (Speech Teacher) to John Renner (Principal) from Summit School Queens 


"Here's my report: OMG it was awesome! Truly one of the best activities I've ever seen take place here at Summit! We gave them a very large group of kids to work with, and they handled them wonderfully. The way that they related to the kids was terrific, and the activities they led worked on so many pragmatic language skills in SUCH an effective way, including increasing the kids' awareness of their bodies in space, body proximity, eye contact, voice, and generally how others perceive them from their non-verbal cues. They also did word association and one-word stories that involved verbal expression and required kids to follow a story line. Almost all of the kids looked like they were having a fantastic time, and it was an activity where the shy kids could get to interact with others in a very structured (hence comfortable) way. At the end I spoke to the three members of the improv group and raved about how great they were and told them the specific ways that the activities helped our students. They asked me a number of questions, such as regarding how to handle various students' behaviors, and we talked about upcoming activities."
