Samford After Sundown Course!



Extemporaneous Theatre Company is pleased to announce that our Chairman and Director, Douglas O'Neil, Jr., along with Callie Mauldin, is currently teaching Improvisation and Comedy for Beginners as part of Samford University's "Samford After Sundown" program!

The key skills used in improvisation -- such as creative thinking, trusting one's self, teamwork, and "leaving one's ego at the door" -- are applicable to a broad range of life skills and careers. This course introduces these concepts in a classroom and a hands-on workshop environment where everyone performs with and in front of everyone else. This allows students to employ new ways of thinking and working with other people, even if a student never intends to perform on stage.

PLUS - this Professional Development course counts for 1.6 CEUs!

It's too late to get into this course, but we will be teaching it again this fall! To learn more about "Samford After Sundown", please visit Samford After Sundown on the web at www.samford.edu/sundown!


Custom Workshops for Schools!


Our workshops can be tailored to an individual school's needs and scheduling constraints, and are taught by professional improvisors with classroom experience. From absolute beginners to seasoned performers, we can cover any level of improvisational experience. Since each workshop is individualized, please inquire for more information about having us come out to your school (teachers/administrators only, please) by emailing our Chairman at douglas@extemporaneoustheatre.com.
