Corporate Programmes

The Canadian Improv Showcase offers a wide variety of workshops for the corporate business world. Utilizing the joys of improvisation they are able to offer a completely customized and interactive form of entertainment. However, much like the art of improv itself, the workshops are customized and highly tailored to the individual corporation’s needs, so what is listed here is merely a starting point.

Stress Relief & Team Building Programme:
This programme was created to allow co-workers to bond and share a good laugh. Participants get the opportunity to see a performance of improv where they act as the audience and provide all the needed suggestions. Following a break and quick question and answer period, the participants are broken into groups (often sales teams, company divisions etc.) and are taught the basics of how to perform improv themselves. The benefits of improvisation are many, including improved:
• self confidence and self-esteem
• team work
• creative thinking & problem solving
• listening skills
• risk taking
• focus & concentration
• presentation & public speaking skills
• and greater leadership


After the participants have had their crash course on improv, they perform in front of their peers in a safe and non-judgmental environment (as everyone will perform). Through performing a simple set of improv co-workers will get a chance to really bond and learn a new way to rely on one another while creating a lasting memory of a fun, controlled, activity.

Holiday, Meeting or Special Event Entertainment Programme:
Completely customizable from start to finish, the Canadian Improv Showcase will create an amazing show right before your very eyes basing all their material on audience suggestions which makes every show completely different. The ability to customize such an event is pivotal as it allows the client to control the direction of the content: keeping the comedy clean like classic Vaudeville or being over-the-top like today’s cutting edge comedy. It also allows the Canadian Improv Showcase to offer their services for family centred events.
