If you want to increase collaboration, improve communication, and build trust amongst employees, then our improv workshops are a great idea for your business.

We now entertain more than 30,000 people per year at a two-theatre facility in Little Five Points, public events across the state, and at improv festivals across the continent. In addition to our regularly scheduled improv and scripted shows, the Dad's Garage cast regularly performs at private events. Whether you want to add some much-needed laughter to your annual board meeting, or you have a birthday bash full of comedy lovers, we perform wherever you need us.
