Opportunity connecting to everybody

Virtual Intergenerational Improv Theater games are a great way to connect across age and cultural groups! This is NOT your average improv class! We also have heartfelt, intergenerational conversations about life. And unlike most improv classes, we welcome all levels of experience, so that we can learn from each other.

Why Choose Us

Experienced Facilitators/Coaches

Yael Schy led an intergenerational improv class daily at a week-long music camp I attended. At age 65, I was not new to improv as I had taken quite few classes with other seniors.

"Yael is one of the best improv teachers I've ever had, including my time taking classes at Upright Citizens Brigade, Los Angeles! She makes every class so incredibly fun, while also providing constructive feedback to help everyone improve at their craft. My class was filled with many different ages, spanning from pre-teens to seniors. It can sometimes be difficult to teach improv to so many different ages, especially since one aspect of improv is shared experiences - luckily Yael's specialty is finding the commonality within us all!"
Alexina Boudreaux-Allen
"It was a great honor to be in the first intergenerational improv class [at BATS] with Yael Schy and Gary Ware. I have been improvising for over 10 years and teaching it too, but I found Yael’s style refreshing and learned so much from being in this cross-generational group. Not only did we do improv together, but Yael and Gary ensured that we had intergenerational dialogue as well. Yael guided me to “embrace my mistakes as gifts” and listen carefully to my scene partners. After a few weeks of this class, I feel more relaxed on stage and readier than ever to try new things! Even though we were all online, Yael and Gary created a beautiful community and we all felt very bonded after it. And the carefully curated show at the end left me with a deep sense of accomplishment! I’d give this class my highest recommendation!"
