Re-Ignite the Mind

The joy of improv takes center stage in Taproot’s Re-Ignite the Mind classes for individuals experiencing memory changes. Students create, imagine, laugh, and connect using basic improv principles of “yes, and” and “in the moment” creativity.

About

Re-Ignite the Mind classes invite students to live fully in the moment as they play classic theatre games. In classes where there are no wrong answers and only opportunities to say “yes, and” to each new imagination moment, students step boldly into the creative play of improv and grow in confidence. Every class is guided by Taproot teaching artists trained with knowledge of conditions that affect memory to offer classes that meet and exceed the needs of their improv students.
