Come have a sweaty and fun summer fling with The Second City. (Not that sweaty though, we have air conditioning. More of a metaphorical sweaty. You know what? Forget we said sweaty.)

But... why take an improv class? Glad you asked. Here are five key reasons:
Make New Friends.
According to the Harvard Journal of Science*, when you show up to participate or engage in something you're interested in, the likelihood of meeting someone who shares that interest increases by a whopping 75,000%. *Not a real publication.
Enhance Creativity.
Improv is an incredible way to flex your creative muscles. The more you practice, the more innovative and imaginative your ideas will become.
Communication is a Skill.
Active listening and responding to your scene partners are crucial skills in improv AND everyday life. Refining these skills can help improve your personal and professional relationships.
Boost That Confidence.
You'll be encouraged to think on your feet and trust your instincts. As you become more comfortable in class, you'll naturally feel more confident in your everyday life.
