Improv

Learning to improvise works many intellectual and emotional muscles simultaneously. We need to listen, collaborate, suggest, adjust, be spontaneous and build narrative all at once–and it’s a ton of fun.

At The Catalyst, we offer weekly drop-in improv sessions in Lausanne and Geneva, and we have a monthly show in Lausanne, CatCave9, at Cinema Oblo.
