improv comedy workshops
If you want to bring an enriching and wildly fun experience to your school group, improv troupe, or corporate setting, we would love to work with you.
In our workshops, we’ll give your group the tools you’ll need to improvise your own Hamilton-style musical. We’ll work on rhyming, narrative structure, performance elements, and other basic improv comedy techniques required to put on a made-up American Musical. It’s a ton of fun!
Shamilton is a production of Baby Wants Candy, one of the world’s most celebrated musical improv comedy ensembles. We’ve done workshops for thousands of students over the years, at all age ranges and experience levels.
