 The Appalachian Center for the Arts is offering free improv classes to ring in the new year beginning on January 16th. Anyone 18 years or older can sign up for two weeks of classes that end with an improv show on January 26th. No acting experience is required and sign-ups are available at theapparts.org. We're going to have six days of rehearsal or practice, the 16th, 17th, and 18th in the 23rd, 24th, and 25th with a show on the 26th at 7.30 to 9 p.m. Yeah, and it will culminate in one big show and it's kind of like the peach bombs last year but it's going to be just a little bit different. We already have our name, we're the Country Bumpkins for this round under the banner of improv at the app. The Country Bumpkins have been doing a lot of work this past year with classes and and getting everything ready and and they're really ready to share their stuff.

Ward says he is looking forward to meeting and working with new students. Social, communication, interaction, team building, all these skills that are foundational, not only in the professional world but our personal lives are really honed in during an improv session or improv class. You know new students, new people or even experienced people coming in, you know we're able to not fall into the same pitfalls you know that some actors or improvisers may have and we're able to build on a really solid foundation of improvisation, yes and learning with the team dynamic as opposed to I've got to learn my lines, I've got to do this by myself. We have a family, we have a community here. Reporting from Outantop News, I'm Nick Colum.
