Lauren Stein lives in Toronto and runs improv workshops and parties. She is available for your centre or event. Bring her in to your place of work, church, synagogue, community centre, or social group, or host her at a house-warming, office party, or social gathering. She is also available for birthday parties and family reunions. (Testimonials and references available upon request.)
Lauren has received her BA in Drama from the University of Guelph; ATCL in Speech and Drama from Trinity Guildhall; Professional Certificate in Communication Skills from Trinity Guildhall; and taken the Summer Intensive Improv Program from Impatient Theatre Company in Toronto and the Master Improv Retreat and the Summer Improv Intensive from Artistic New Directions in the Catskills. She has been trained by Second City, Young People’s Theatre, Dragontrails Drama School, and more schools and plays than you can shake a stick at. Even a really big stick. She has made many organizations happy with her improv programs, including Nulogy Corporation, BBYO, JD Diamond school, Sterling Hall School, Community Living, Chai Tikvah, Pride of Israel Synagogue, Chess Institute of Canada, Spirit of Math Schools, and private birthday parties for kids and adults.
Sample workshop: It can be any length, from half an hour to 3 hours. Each workshop is customized, so it can be different games based on how many people are attending, their comfort level and experience level with improv, and which skills we want to focus on (confidence, team-building, spontaneity, listening, etc.) The general outline is warm-up for a few minutes, some starter games to get everyone comfortable, then building scenes. We end with a wrap-up of what we learned and what each person gained from it.

Very nice blog!!


Hey there,
I’d like to hear more about how improv can help people improve their confidence.
Thanks!


You’re totally channeling Gilda Radner with that photo.


Wow! I’d never thought about improv as a trust-building experience but of course it’s clear that it is. Anything that helps us to trust each other as human beings has got to be a very very good thing.
If you’re sort of shy about “acting” in front of others will this get in the way a lot?


Improvs with Lauren is fun unlimited!


Hey Lauren, if a jabberwakee’s head falls off of your palace wall, what should you do? and also, you are amazing!
i don’t think that’s a question, but i really hope to learn your improv skills!
