'Bristol Improv Theatre ran an activity as part of an away day I was co-facilitating for a sustainability consultancy firm. The client wanted a fun and interactive session that was also directly relevant to their work - something to get everyone mixing and safely out of their comfort zones. Ahead of time some participants had expressed nervousness about improvisation, however, the Bristol Improv Theatre team put everyone at ease straight-away and everyone got involved. I was impressed with the level of engagement and by how the facilitators modelled the communication and interpersonal skills they were inviting us all to practise – especially when it came to experimenting with taking risks that participants might not otherwise take in front of each other. I would recommend Bristol Improv Theatre activities or training for anyone looking for something that develops relationship-building skills in an engaging and fun way'.

James Barlow, Beechlight

'Working with the Bristol Improv Theatre on designing a bespoke series of workshops titled ‘Improvisation Skills for Teaching’ has been such a pleasure. They took time to find out what we needed, and their delivery was outstanding. Over 95% of attendees described the sessions (which were all delivered online) as 'Extremely Useful' or 'Very useful' making it our best received academic development course of the year.

 They also ran a social for our staff team which proved lots of fun during a really stressful time. There's nothing like an improv games night to get everyone laughing and connecting with each other.

 I highly recommend working with Bristol Improv Theatre, whether you are another higher education institution, business or company. Improv has so much to teach us about communication, interaction and cultivating healthy workplaces.  Thank you BIT!'
