"If I can get you to laugh with me, you like me better, which makes you more open to my ideas. And if I can persuade you to laugh at the particular point I make, by laughing at it you acknowledge its truth." John Cleese

Tailored Workshops
We offer workshops that are customized around your focus. We understand improvisation. You understand what your group needs. Let us develop a training package for you that drives home the points of your PowerPoint presentation. We start with improvisation and your focus. Then we develop, from hundreds of games and exercises, a workshop to reinforce your objectives. All games and exercises are participatory, which mean that all the learning that occurs comes from what the participants discover while playing. Oh...and it's FUN
What Improv Offers:
When you are improvising on stage you are creating something out of nothing in a dynamic situation where you know immediately whether you are winning hearts and minds. You must listen and accept gifts. You have to field curveballs and accept the unknown gracefully. It is natural to fight for the status quo, but improv is about moving forward together with a common focus and goal. Because this is something that does not come easily for most,
Improv games and exercises have been created to help improvisers learn these skills and utilize them in nerve-racking situations. These skills are imperatives in improv, but also in any situation where teamwork, thinking on your feet, collaborating or working in an ever-changing environment, to name a few, would be of a benefit.
Because of the structure of the workshops, the participants have greater buy-in and retention. They discover the lesson and its objective. Since they discover the point, they don't have to be brought on board. They own it.
In general the sessions are fun, interactive, creative, actively engaging the participants getting them moving and involved. They discover the lessons, creating long term retention. Best case scenario: these workshops can win hearts and minds - at the least they will create a fun atmosphere to impart some useful skills.
Bovine Metropolis Theater is based in Denver, CO, USA

Open Listening Improv Workshop for Companies and Groups
: Everyone knows listening is important, but the only true way to know what someone is saying is to be an open listener. We need to listen without waiting for our to speak and without an agenda to truly understand each other. We all understand this, but through this workshop we practice interactive exercises that enable you to own it! Your employees will learn how to clear their heads to become effective open listeners and therefore more successful employees.
Team Building using improv for corporations and groups
: The team building workshop is results driven and effective. Through interactive improv exercises and talk back sessions your group will not only learn how to work more as a group, they will get to know each other and themselves in a new and unique way. We relate everything back to the office and through laughter and lots of fun we are able to tie the exercise back into real life situations.
All Companies
Bringing Your Authentic Self to Work Improv Workshop for Corporations and Groups
: Having dispassionate employees is one of the costliest mistakes a business can make. Creating an environment that encourages your employees to bring themselves fully to the job, not only makes for a more positive work environment, it will also increase productivity, sick days will decrease, and retention will increase.
Presentation Skills Improv Workshop for Corporations and Groups
: Much of what you say is said before you open your mouth. Just integrating body language into your presentation will take it up a notch. The improv exercises used in this workshop allow your employees to explore more than just what come out of their mouths to become more effective presenters. Through fun, interactive exercises they will learn how to trust themselves, think on their feet, and be someone everyone wants to listen to present.
