IMPROV

 

Improvisational theatre is a team of
students who prepare their own scenes and enact
them before a group. 
The scenes are then discussed with the audience through a processor
to allow the audience to become a part of the scene. 
Student actors are kept in their character
during part of the discussion to better
understand viewpoints and develop
critical thinking skills of the audience. 

    Topics are chosen based upon the needs of the group. 
The group prior to the presentation identifies
a topic or concern and the team develops 3 to 4
scenes to be presented and discussed within
45 to 60 minutes. 
The scenes relate to real life including
the serious as well as lighter side of situations.

    The group has preformed at various
locations including Omaha Jr. and Sr.
high leadership retreats, Columbus High School
AIDS Awareness day, June Jam drug-alcohol
free retreat, State FCCLA conference,
Sertoma Club and classrooms within
the Norris elementary, middle and high school.

    The group enjoys performing for people of all ages
and of various groups.
