“If people had no fear, you’d hardly need to have to teach them. It’s the fear that screws everything up.” – Keith Johnstone

Our monthly Mash-up session is a 90-minute drop-in class where our experienced instructors will take you through a variety of fun and exhilarating improv games and exercises helping you to overcome your fear of failure, de-stress, get out of your head and into the moment. Our professional theatre provides the perfect supportive and inclusive environment for you to take a step out of your comfort zone and embark on an exciting journey into the world of improv.

This course is perfect for beginners who are unable to commit to a weekly class (now, you don’t have to miss out on experiencing the joy of improv!) More experienced players are also welcome to join to keep in practice, have fun, and enhance their craft on stage.

Annual Membership Available!

“I was amazed by the courage of the newbies and the generosity of the more experienced players, supporting the newcomers with kindness and enthusiasm. I laughed at those funny epiphanies happening during the impro games, and I was truly impressed by the talent, the skills and the passion of the performers. It is definitely a great format also for the audience because of how interactive it is. Thank you Courtyard for creating a safe environment for storytelling in this city.” – Diane Patierno
