Improv for Kids - Orange Hub

Information and register here!

Live far from the Grindstone? Not to worry! Grindstone Theatre School is now also in The Orange Hub!

Don’t miss our Orange Hub classes starting in April! Improv 101B, Acting 101B and Stand Up 101B! We even have an opportunity for youth to take part in Improv for Kids running at The Orange Hub location this spring!

Have you ever wondered how people are able to make up a whole play just using a word from the audience? Join your very own improv troupe where you will learn the basics of improv to create fun and fantastical stories together! Then invite your friends and family to share what you’ve learned.

No experience necessary! All you need to bring is your imagination! This course is designed to be repeated as the material changes each term.
