Thank you for facilitating the Leadership Improve sessions at AstraZeneca. I received some good feedback from a crowd that can be a little tough and very professional. I was happy to see most getting into it and I believe it ‘broke the ice’ before our team conversations in the afternoon.

Thank you so much for coming to us! We’re so glad to hear you made it home safely. It was a wonderful time, and we received a lot of positive feedback. I really appreciate your marketing suggestions and will look into everything you mentioned. Again, it was a great night, and thank you so, so much!

With consideration of the obvious, Walt and his team are actually doing what they are teaching. This makes a difference to many groups. It is important that theater groups work with professionals. What is not obvious is that the entire experience benefits the group. They are able to take class in an actual club where the professionals perform. That alone adds an immersion quality not available by hiring just an improve teacher to come to a studio somewhere. Walt and his team make sure that anyone that wants to be involved is able to get up and do the work. Its been a favorite experience for many of my groups.

Hi Sam and Walt! I wanted to thank you so much for accommodating our group this week and facilitating the improv workshop. I received so many compliments about the event from the leadership team – they really enjoyed the exercise and being pushed out of their comfort zone. Sam was a great facilitator, as mentioned by many of the leaders as well. I will certainly be recommending your workshop if anyone from our company is hosting a team event in New York.

Dear Walter and Ilan! We are all delighted with your workshop yesterday!!! Our teenagers keep talking about how great it was. Lina Coswell, our associate director, asks Ilan personally if he broke his leg. ( I have no idea what the reference is, I hope Ilan knows 😂 :))) Thank you for your energy and talent!!! We look forward to further partnerships and look forward to our next crazy projects and adventures!!

Good Morning….. I am a NYC Board of Education Middle School Theater Teacher here in Staten Island. I took a class trip back in 2019 with two of my sixth grade classes. Not only did the students and myself have an AWESOME EXPERIENCE but the other teacher with me raved it was by far the BEST TRIP they ever went on. The pizza was delicious as well . I would like information so I can start coming up with dates to take my classes there as soon as possible. Thank you so much.

I’ve had Walt and his team come in and work with my students for over five years now. We have both visited the NYC space and held sessions and assemblies in our building. Year after year, the students love exploring improv, and they really enjoy the culminating shows, following the individual class sessions. This program is not only affordable, it’s beneficial for all students. It helps them come out of their shells and also gives them an opportunity to explore skills out of their rigorous class schedules. Looking forward to having them back in the 2023-2024 school year!

This event was a blast! I have seen a few different groups doing improv in the city and this is by far my favorite. I really like that their cast is so eclectic and diverse with such a funny group of unique players. Plus they were very good at making the comedy work for both kids and throwing in jokes for adults.

It was a pleasure attending your show- the kids literally had an awesome time- for the first time I can confidently say the kids had more fun that me and I am a HUGE competition when it comes to who had more fun!

I had the pleasure of seeing this show in New York and it was wonderful. I haven’t laughed so hard in a long time. We had the most entertaining night. I highly recommend you take the time to see this show.

Loove this place. I did improv with Walt and the gang on satuday mornings. And I had a blast. This guy is insanely funny. And so smart. Can’t wait to go back. If you like improve or want to try but kinda scared. Go there you’ll be laughing your a.. off and learn lots of new things. Try it and see for yourself.

I would argue that among the nightmares young performers may have may include performing improv at 6:30PM in a room dominated by a middle school audience there for someone’s birthday. An obligatory gaggle of moms and wine in the back, a few stragglers from out of town sort of complete the horror.So we were pleased that the troupe rose to the occasion and stayed committed to the craft for just over an hour as they performed a set of traditional improv games, taking suggestions from the audience, and throwing callbacks in here and there, building rappore with the group. The host/emcee handled the room well, and the performers engaged in the games that I think they know likely appealed the most to the crowd.The full musical from nothing, that ultimately featured a headless baby in search for his body may sound ridiculous, but the group pulled it off. Sound effects worked well. And the physical comedy during sign language was really good. We liked the whole group, even if most of them hadn’t a clue what a square dance caller was during World’s Worst…. they made it work, and it was hilarious.A good room enhances the show. I won’t call our experience a good room. But no matter. The troupe was game, they did exceedingly well, and I’d like to see them again.For this show it was $25 per person for general admission. Not a bad seat in the house. A one item minimum gets you some not so great beverages/food items, but honestly, nobody goes to comedy shows for the food. It’s part of the price of admission.Ours was a good experience and I give them 5 stars. 4 are for the show. An extra star for the fact that these folks worked their butts off to work that particular room on that particular night. Our family enjoyed it.

We love Eight is NEVER Enough Improv comedy. It’s really funny for kids and adults alike, and it’s exiting to be at the club. The best part is how the talented performers bring the art of comedy alive for kids, with all its creativity, collaboration and spontaneous intellect and wit. Comedy is such an important art, especially in unsettled times, and helps us to laugh at things that need to be brought to our attention. My kids are 11, 15 and 17 and they have all loved it for several years.

I wanted to thank you and your troop for the best birthday party my kids have ever had (and they’ve had some good ones). The group was so happy and entertained and I’ve gotten so many compliments about the party. You are all so talented and honestly I feel so grateful that you all put your time and hearts into a show for a group of 10 year olds. Thank you and everyone else who made this event so spectacular.

I just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed the show! It was so entertaining, hilarious, and the talent was super impressive. We used to live in the city and wish we had something like that for kids in Atlanta…it would do so well there. But we will definitely return whenever we visit and will spread the word to our friends!

I just wanted to say how awesome the Sunday noon improv class has been. Andrea and Nick have really helped my son get out of his shell and give home to be silly and push him to be thoughtful. Can you let me know when they will start back up again?
