You may have heard that improv and roleplaying have a lot in common. It’s true! You can apply many of the same skills used in improvisational acting to make your game rock, like creative collaboration and taking risks to drive your story to unexpected places.

We’ll explore improvisational acting as it applies tabletop roleplaying through some fun and low-pressure exercises. You’ll learn just what “Yes, and” means, practice active listening and trust building, and celebrate getting into trouble!

Beginners to improv are welcome and encouraged. Bring an open mind and excitement to try new things!

NOTE: Improv often involves being on your feet a lot and being physically active. While we encourage you to wear comfortable shoes and bring a bottle of water, all activities can be modified as needed for comfort and ability.
