Birthday Improv Workshop
An improv workshop is a great activity for a birthday party! The games are easy enough for everyone to get involved and are a LOT of fun. During the 50 minute workshop, the party guests learn about improv through playing games that inspire a lot of silliness and shenanigans. Very quickly into the workshop the kids are getting up in front of each other and cracking each other up. It’s a real hoot!
Headcount:5 to 12 (Can request additional headcount)

- Offsite Location
- The Episcopal Church of St. Andrew and Holy Communion - Ground floor, 160 W South Orange Ave, Ground floor parish hall, South Orange Village, NJ 07079
Age recommendation is for 3rd graders and up.
Because improv works best with focus and collaboration, 3rd graders and up are the best fit for our workshops.
Pricing:
The cost for a 50 minute workshop for up to 12 participants is $295.

Venue Size for Younger Participants (3rd–5th Grade):
For workshops with more than 6 kids, we need at least 460 sq ft of open, unobstructed space. Ideal locations include a large yard/field or an indoor event space like a community center room, studio, or gym. Basements are usually too small because younger kids need plenty of room for movement-heavy games. Space covered by furniture doesn’t count toward the minimum.
Size Guide:
Meets minimum: 20′×23′, 22′×21′, 18′×26′
Too small: 20′×20′, 16′×25′
Chairs:
Participants will need chairs (or a comfortable spot on the floor) to sit during parts of the workshop. In addition to this seating, please provide at least four extra chairs for improv games. The facilitator will set everything up before the workshop begins.
Space rental:
If you’d like us to secure a venue, we can rent space at St. Andrew and Holy Communion Church (South Orange, NJ) on your behalf for $60-$70/hour depending on the space; tables and chairs are included. (Subject to availability; rental cost is added to your invoice.)
