Overview
About this Event
TECO & Tampa’s Countdown Improv Festival have teamed up to bring the joy of improv comedy to the military and veteran communities of Tampa Bay! We’re calling all military and vets who’d like to learn improv comedy, connect with fellow servicemembers and vets via the comedic arts, and laugh while growing their personal and professional skills! Grab a battle buddy and join us for a set of engaging workshops (come to one or both), where you’ll learn, grow, and play. Plus, you’ll get free access to watch some of the best improv comedians from around the country for the entire weekend!
Military and veterans are also invited to play (only if you want) in open improv comedy jams and watch all the shows at all five nights of this nationally acclaimed festival: all FREE for military and vets!
Need a laugh? Want to work on your ‘funny’? Improv is not just for actors and comedians. We’ll prove it to you. Just look at the list of successful Saturday Night Live alums and it’s clear improv comedy has been the starting point for many of today’s best-known performers, but let us say again, improv is for everyone! Whether you’re an actor setting your sights on joining an improv or sketch ensemble, a performer wanting to polish your skills for commercial auditions, OR you just want to open a door to greater creativity as a human being, then this workshop is for YOU!
Air Force veteran and The Second City Instructor BJ Lange brings 20 years of improv and teaching experience to lead the group in a safe and supportive setting, allowing servicemembers and veterans to grow while building relationships and strengthening self-confidence while having fun with improvisational theater!
We’ve got two free afternoon workshops! Come to one, or come to both! Following the Sunday afternoon workshop, we’ll have food before we host an open improv comedy jam! Apply now to be a part of the fun!
Enrollment is limited, so apply soon!
