****PLEASE NOTE THE CHANGED TIME AND LOCATION FOR THIS JAM *** We made the change to meld it with the Ottawa Improv Jamboree which is a fabulous showcase of local improv talent plus workshops too!! See https://ottawaimprovjamboree.com/festival

Curious about improv? Ready to shake up your routine, have tons of fun and spark creativity? This 2-workshop is a playful, no-pressure intro. You’ll jump into easy, interactive exercises and try out a few improv games with the support of our friendly facilitators. No experience needed—just a willingness to laugh, experiment, and connect with others. By the end, you’ll have a taste of improv’s magic, a few new friends, and maybe even the inspiration to join us for more.

NOTE: although this Jam is set up specifically for those new or new-ish to improv, all Community members are welcome. If you're an experienced improviser it is a good idea to play with new people as a way of strengthening your skills. Attendees must be 18+.

BE GOOD

These jams take place in a welcoming, easygoing space—we’re here to have fun, support each other, and foster a sense of encouragement and community. All participants in the jam are expected to refrain from conduct that is sexist, racist, homophobic, transphobic, ableist, or otherwise discriminatory.

Our School’s Code of Conduct requires all participants to respect each other’s boundaries. Refrain from physical contact if you do not have permission from a fellow performer.

We want to make sure everyone gets a chance to jam so we have a waitlist for this event. To make room for others, please cancel your booking if you can't make it.

Please arrive a few minutes early so we can start on time!
