Improv: It's Not Just for Performers Anymore!

Sure, you’ve heard about the health benefits of theater arts, but did you know that improv can supercharge your office culture, boost productivity, and sharpen your leadership skills? Maybe that's why the folks at Duke and Stanford have jumped on the improv train, adding it to their business curriculum (yes, even Ivy Leaguers are saying “yes, and…” these days!).

At Verge, we’ll craft a custom workshop – or a series if you’re ready to make this an ongoing adventure – to help your organization master teamwork, effective communication, strong leadership, and the art of listening with intent. You’ll tap into your creativity, unlock the secrets of body language, and develop rock-solid self-trust.

The best part? Verge Theater ensures your leaders and teams develop these essential soft skills while having an outrageous amount of fun. We’ve got the structure covered – all you need to do is show up with an open mind, ready to laugh until your abs hurt (yes, it counts as a workout!).

We engaged Verge Theater’s Corporate Improv team to cultivate a team building exercise, yet it was so much more. Yes, we laughed, related, cajoled, and saluted one another; however, the most powerful experience was seeing so many teammates “breaking through”. Improv is uncomfortable, but we never do great things from being comfortable. The Verge team helped all of us operate outside the norm to see what was possible if we just gave it a chance. I am confident we left our Improv evening on the verge of doing great things.”
