Merlin Works hosts monthly improv mixers at Salvage Vanguard Theater. The Mixer is intended to help improvisers make new friends and form or find troupes to rehearse and perform with. It’s kinda like speed dating for improvisers.
The Mixer is open to the entire community: students, free agents, existing troupes looking for new members, coaches, or anyone who wants a free workout. At the beginning, scouts and coaches will let the group know what they are looking for. Then Shana Merlin will lead an improv warmup where everyone will get to know each other and get comfortable. Then we will be divided into groups for open scenework. It’s free, it’s fun, and you just might get cast in a show or set up with a group of improvisers and a coach to form a new troupe.**
These troupes serve as House Troupes for Gnap! at SVT with regular shows during the Saturday Night Special held every Saturday at 10pm.
** Attending the mixer does not guarantee you will be placed in a troupe.
