  • What does Improvisation Theatre have to offer to business?

    All skills developed for Improvisation Theatre are transferable to business, both at individual and team levels!

    Improvisation Theatre (aka ‘Improv’ or ‘Impro’) is the art of acting without script or props. Players spontaneously develop characters and stories starting from input given by the audience or the moderator.

    It is based on a few principles:
    - Pay attention. Watch, Listen. Be aware of what in going on within you and outside.
    - Make your partner(s) look good. Take care of each other
    - Accept. Face the facts, take everything you are given as offers, acknowledge other's ideas
    - Be present. Act now. Build on what is existing
    - Enjoy. Don't judge. Take risks, mistakes are allowed.

    When individuals learn these principles and apply them at work, they will develop useful competencies such as creativity, confidence, listening skills, interpersonal communication, cooperation and more.They will be able to see other's perspectives and adapt to change.
