YPN "ED" Talk with Siblings Improv - 2016 03

YPN "ED" Talk with Siblings Improv - 2016 03
Listen, Speak, Repeat: 5 Ways Improv can make you a better public speaker

Improv comedy isn't about coming up with something to say. It's about listening, being in tune with others, and being fully present in the moment. Likewise, public speaking isn't just about a detailed manuscript, it's about connecting with an audience. The guys behind Siblings Improv have spent years on stages of all sizes and have developed five improvisational principles that can help anyone be a better communicator. Whether you find yourself on a theater stage, a classroom, or boardroom, improv can help you connect and communicate with your audience.

Eric Epperson and Drew Crisp co-founded Siblings Improv in 2013 with the hope of promoting collaboration and good times in the Joplin community. Since its inception, Siblings Improv has performed shows throughout the four-state area and has led creativity workshops across the country. Follow along at @SiblingsImprov.


This is a brown bag lunch. RSVP by clicking the link or call 417.624.1996.  
"ED" talks are brought to you by YPN Professional Development workgroup.
