Marblehead, Massachusetts- Marblehead Little Theatre is excited to announce its offering of a four class introduction to Improv designed for preteens and teens. The classes will include improv games that translate to useful life skills like listening, creativity, patience, and collaboration. Make new friends in a fun and supportive environment, while building overall confidence! Some of the skills the class covers include expressing emotions, agreement, and creating stories together. Plus, each session will conclude with a performance for family and friends.
