Events Calendar

This is not a show and not a typical Alchemy class. Although it requires no comedy or theater experience, it is best used for current students or performers to get extra practice time on the Alchemy stage. There is no audience for Improv 000’s.

These practices are free for current Alchemy Performers and Students (though they must pre-register). However, anyone interested can also register online for $10. All participants must pre-register online (registration closes at 4:00 PM). However, if you arrive more than 5 minutes late you may lose your reservation.
