“Improv techniques from the theatre can give scientists tools to make science more clear, vivid, and meaningful.” - Alan Alda

This workshop uses improvisation techniques developed in the theatre - as well as those developed in collaboration with the Alan Alda Center for Communicating Science at Stony Brook University - to help those who need to communicate become more spontaneous, direct, personal and responsive. It aims to help connect communicators and audiences, including professional colleagues, students, and public audiences.
