About this Event

Let's just talk and get to know each other outside an improv classroom or stage!

Let's connect, chat, collaborate or whatever comes out of a little socialization. We might throw in a little trivia and a non-improv related game or challenge to get things started. Hope you'll join me to discussion our shared passion and anything else we stumble upon.
