Activity Description and Educational Rationale
This year, The York School has the exciting opportunity to pursue participating in the Canadian Improv Games (https://improv.ca/) with our fledgling Improv Club. These games are a great opportunity for students to learn valuable skills, hone their craft, and engage in some fun and friendly competition - all while having some laughs along the way! This would be the first time TYS has ever entered these games, and will hopefully kickstart a new tradition here. This event is the Regional competition, allowing participants to receive valuable feedback and input on their skills thus far, as well as cheer on and support other student improvisers from across the city.
