If laughter is the best medicine, you’ll feel terrific after attending this comedy and improvisation workshop. No performing experience is necessary; just come prepared to get on your feet and play theatre games like Zip, Zap, Zop; What Are You Doing?; Fortunately/Unfortunately; Questions Only, and many more. You’ll find that this is a very non-competitive environment with no winners and losers; our goal is to be supportive of each other and appreciate the contributions of each participant. This class, taught by Central Florida Community Arts Teaching Artist Chris Hicks, comes with a guarantee of having a good time, so sign up and come join in on the fun!

This program is presented by Chris Hicks and is hosted by the Winter Park Health Foundation.
