Hanging with Harold (Drop-In Event) - With Crim
Hanging with Harold is not a class or a workshop. It's not a show, either. It's a "learn by doing" drop-in event where Sea Tea Improv Studios students, Sea Tea Comedy Theater performers, and members of the Connecticut improv community (that's you, just by showing up!) practice a kind of longform improv comedy together known as the Harold. Learn more about the Harold here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harold_(improvisation)
"You'll have to do about a hundred Harolds to start feeling comfortable with the form." - Matt Besser, founding member of the Upright Citizens Brigade
We track of the cumulative number of Harolds done by each participant from week to week. Each week, we will do 1, 2 or 3 Harolds (time depending), and everyone who participates will add to their Harold total. Can you reach 100 completed Harolds?
Just $5 per person via cash at the door, Venmo (@seateaimprov), or PayPal (comedy@seateaimprov.com).

Improv 402 - Twoprov (2Prov) - 6-Class Intensive Performance Course
*** 6-Class Intensive with irregular schedule -- see days & times! ***
Do you tend to hang out on the back line until you feel like you have the perfect idea? Do you cower in terror that your scenes will never get swept? Or, do you think a fellow improviser is so funny that you wonder what it would be like to only do scene after scene with her?
If any of these apply to you, sign up for 2-prov-- a performance class on the art of performing with only two people onstage. You & your partner will play 100% of the characters, make 100% of the choices, and do 100% of the editing. Challenging, fun, and freeing, 2-prov is just the best.

It's a "learn by doing" drop-in event where Sea Tea Improv Studios students, Sea Tea Comedy Theater performers, and members of the Connecticut improv community (that's you, just by showing up!) practice a kind of longform improv comedy together known as the Harold. Learn more about the Harold here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harold_(improvisation)
"You'll have to do about a hundred Harolds to start feeling comfortable with the form." - Matt Besser, founding member of the Upright Citizens Brigade
We track of the cumulative number of Harolds done by each participant from week to week. Each week, we will do 1, 2 or 3 Harolds (time depending), and everyone who participates will add to their Harold total. Can you reach 100 completed Harolds?
Just $5 per person via cash at the door, Venmo (@seateaimprov), or PayPal (comedy@seateaimprov.com).

Hanging With Harold - 100 Harolds Show!
Hanging With Harold - The 100 Harolds Show!
On December 6th, 2012, Sea Tea Improv began "Hanging with Harold" -- a weekly drop-in event where improvisers could learn the famous improv comedy longform The Harold by doing it. It wasn't a show, it wasn't a class or workshop, it was going through the form and working it out together.
There's an apocryphal Matt Besser quote that says “you’ll have to do about a hundred Harolds to start feeling comfortable with the form.” So, the idea for Hanging with Harold was to perform (and track) the Harolds, with the goal of getting individuals to 100 completed Harolds.
We've held a Hanging with Harold almost every Thursday night since then... well over 200 drop-in events at our Studios, and we've done two special all-day Harold Marathons where people could drop-in all day long and do Harolds that counted toward the total.
We now have a full team of improvisers who have completed 100 Harolds at a Hanging With Harold event (in addition to all the other improv classes, practices & performances they've done) who will to perform the Harold at Sea Tea Comedy Theater!
Come see these pros of the form turn your suggestions into hilarious ideas with different openers, watch them move from beat to beat with sharp connections & characters, and see if it will all come crashing down delightfully or get wrapped up perfectly in the end.

Hanging with Harold (Drop-In Event) - With Caitlin Reese
Hanging with Harold is not a class or a workshop. It's not a show, either. It's a "learn by doing" drop-in event where Sea Tea Improv Studios students, Sea Tea Comedy Theater performers, and members of the Connecticut improv community (that's you, just by showing up!) practice a kind of longform improv comedy together known as the Harold. Learn more about the Harold here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harold_(improvisation)
"You'll have to do about a hundred Harolds to start feeling comfortable with the form." - Matt Besser, founding member of the Upright Citizens Brigade
We track of the cumulative number of Harolds done by each participant from week to week. Each week, we will do 1, 2 or 3 Harolds (time depending), and everyone who participates will add to their Harold total. Can you reach 100 completed Harolds?
Just $5 per person via cash at the door, Venmo (@seateaimprov), or PayPal (comedy@seateaimprov.com).

What's Your Problem? with Chion Wolf
What's Your Problem? is a live advice* show at Sea Tea Improv's underground comedy theater for curious people with a sense of humor.
Write down your problem and/or confession ANONYMOUSLY, put it in the big box, and then host Chion Wolf (WNPR, The Mouth at The Mark Twain House & Museum, the Hartford Hot Several Brass Band, Night Fall) will help you figure it all out with her panel of unqualified yet enthusiastic, thoughtful humans.
Tickets ($15): https://www.eventbrite.com/e/whats-your-problem-with-chion-wolf-tickets-34893274724
For every problem, a new audience volunteer is chosen! Sometimes working out the problems is VERY funny, and sometimes it’s deadly serious. Even better, sometimes it’s both.
At the end of the night, Chion picks one final audience volunteer randomly who gets a free pair of tickets to next month’s show, and the grand finale is a Declaration of Confessions.
Very mature children are invited, and immature adults appreciated, profanity likely.
The audio of each show will be recorded live and released later as a podcast, so if you don't want your snorting laughter or gasps of realizations broadcast to the whole world, you'd better bring your highly-effective muffling techniques.
What's Your Problem? is on the Twitters: https://twitter.com/yerproblem/
What's Your Problem? is on the Instagrams: https://www.instagram.com/yerproblem/
What's Your Problem? is on the emails: everybodyhasaproblem@gmail.com
*DISCLAIMER: This is NOT professional advice! These are people discussing all sorts of problems, telling stories, and exploring philosophical conundrums.
If you're struggling in this chaotic, cruel, funny, absurd, amazing world, and you need someone to talk to, please call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 1-800-273-8255.
What's cool is that you don't have to be suicidal to call them. You don't need to be at your lowest point to find help. You are NOT alone, and you’re always welcome at Sea Tea.

Hanging with Harold (Drop-In Event) - With Matt Francis
Hanging with Harold is not a class or a workshop. It's not a show, either. It's a "learn by doing" drop-in event where Sea Tea Improv Studios students, Sea Tea Comedy Theater performers, and members of the Connecticut improv community (that's you, just by showing up!) practice a kind of longform improv comedy together known as the Harold. Learn more about the Harold here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harold_(improvisation)
"You'll have to do about a hundred Harolds to start feeling comfortable with the form." - Matt Besser, founding member of the Upright Citizens Brigade
We track of the cumulative number of Harolds done by each participant from week to week. Each week, we will do 1, 2 or 3 Harolds (time depending), and everyone who participates will add to their Harold total. Can you reach 100 completed Harolds?
Just $5 per person via cash at the door, Venmo (@seateaimprov), or PayPal (comedy@seateaimprov.com).

Improv 302 - The Set List - 8-week Comedy Course
Wednesdays from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m.
In “The Set List,” Sea Tea Improv will teach you how to play the games you know (and many you don’t) to the very best of your ability.
Register: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/improv-302-the-set-list-8-week-comedy-course-registration-35899916617
Root out the games within the game, and play to the top of your intelligence no matter if you’re speaking in gibberish, mime, poorly translated Russian, or alphabetical order. We’ll apply advanced scenework techniques to simple games to find the perfect blend of short-form styles and practical theatrical concerns (is there conflict? How’s your stage presence looking?).
Make bolder choices, do better scenes, and walk away with a greater understanding of how to have the most fun while using the best part of your brain. Lots of personal feedback in every class. Bring your own strengths and style to short-form games: that’s the goal.

Hanging with Harold (Drop-In Event) - With Josh Marcus
Hanging with Harold is not a class or a workshop. It's not a show, either. It's a "learn by doing" drop-in event where Sea Tea Improv Studios students, Sea Tea Comedy Theater performers, and members of the Connecticut improv community (that's you, just by showing up!) practice a kind of longform improv comedy together known as the Harold. Learn more about the Harold here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harold_(improvisation)
"You'll have to do about a hundred Harolds to start feeling comfortable with the form." - Matt Besser, founding member of the Upright Citizens Brigade
We track of the cumulative number of Harolds done by each participant from week to week. Each week, we will do 1, 2 or 3 Harolds (time depending), and everyone who participates will add to their Harold total. Can you reach 100 completed Harolds?
Just $5 per person via cash at the door, Venmo (@seateaimprov), or PayPal (comedy@seateaimprov.com).

What's Your Problem? with Chion Wolf
What's Your Problem? is a live advice* show at Sea Tea Improv's underground comedy theater for curious people with a sense of humor.
Write down your problem and/or confession ANONYMOUSLY, put it in the big box, and then host Chion Wolf (WNPR, The Mouth at The Mark Twain House & Museum, the Hartford Hot Several Brass Band, Night Fall) will help you figure it all out with her panel of unqualified yet enthusiastic, thoughtful humans.
Tickets ($15): https://www.eventbrite.com/e/whats-your-problem-with-chion-wolf-tickets-34893274724
For every problem, a new audience volunteer is chosen! Sometimes working out the problems is VERY funny, and sometimes it’s deadly serious. Even better, sometimes it’s both.
At the end of the night, Chion picks one final audience volunteer randomly who gets a free pair of tickets to next month’s show, and the grand finale is a Declaration of Confessions.
Very mature children are invited, and immature adults appreciated, profanity likely.
The audio of each show will be recorded live and released later as a podcast, so if you don't want your snorting laughter or gasps of realizations broadcast to the whole world, you'd better bring your highly-effective muffling techniques.
What's Your Problem? is on the Twitters: https://twitter.com/yerproblem/
What's Your Problem? is on the Instagrams: https://www.instagram.com/yerproblem/
What's Your Problem? is on the emails: everybodyhasaproblem@gmail.com
*DISCLAIMER: This is NOT professional advice! These are people discussing all sorts of problems, telling stories, and exploring philosophical conundrums.
If you're struggling in this chaotic, cruel, funny, absurd, amazing world, and you need someone to talk to, please call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 1-800-273-8255.
What's cool is that you don't have to be suicidal to call them. You don't need to be at your lowest point to find help. You are NOT alone, and you’re always welcome at Sea Tea.

Hanging with Harold (Drop-In Event)
Hanging with Harold is not a class or a workshop. It's not a show, either. It's a "learn by doing" drop-in event where Sea Tea Improv Studios students, Sea Tea Comedy Theater performers, and members of the Connecticut improv community (that's you, just by showing up!) practice a kind of longform improv comedy together known as the Harold. Learn more about the Harold here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harold_(improvisation)
"You'll have to do about a hundred Harolds to start feeling comfortable with the form." - Matt Besser, founding member of the Upright Citizens Brigade
We track of the cumulative number of Harolds done by each participant from week to week. Each week, we will do 1, 2 or 3 Harolds (time depending), and everyone who participates will add to their Harold total. Can you reach 100 completed Harolds?
Just $5 per person via cash at the door, Venmo (@seateaimprov), or PayPal (comedy@seateaimprov.com).

Doc Foster's Twisted Tales: A Puppet Show for Grown-Ups
Step right up ladies and gentlemen! Step right up and prepare to be shocked, delighted and horrified during Doc Foster’s Twisted Tales as the one and only Doctor Thaddeus J. Foster rolls into town to beguile audiences with his rare and ghastly brand of storytelling. This is not your Grandma’s puppet show! Nowhere else will audiences have the opportunity to marvel as monsters, specters and demons congregate from supernatural regions and beyond to terrorize the innocent! Stories of intrigue, love, betrayal (and the occasional murder) lay in store for the curious and the brave. Nothing is sacred or too strange for Foster, who reminds us that not every story has a happy ending.
Tickets: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/doc-fosters-twisted-tales-a-puppet-show-for-grown-ups-tickets-36065316332
Doc Foster’s Twisted Tales is a wickedly macabre puppet show anthology combining hand puppetry, shadow, and crankies to bring four original tales of terror to life as told by the eccentric Doc Foster and his misfit troupe of performers. UConn Puppet Arts Program MFA candidate Shane C.S. McNeal pays tribute to the horror genre with this twisted dark comedy of cautionary tales.
Here’s what audiences are saying about Doc Foster:
“Imagine a blend of Coraline, Creepy Pasta and live theater. Oh yeah, it’s creepy, it’s fun, and it’s visually delicious.” – Jeanette Andromeda – Horrormade.com
“What a phenomenal show! I've never laughed so much at tales of death! From its interactive set to its exquisitely talented performers, from captivating storytelling to creatively crafted puppetry, Doc Foster's Twisted Tales was a delight to experience.” – Kayleigh Mierzejewski
“It was attention grabbing (and) hard to lose focus.” - Adam Koziolsasid

What's Your Problem? with Chion Wolf
What's Your Problem? is a live advice* show at Sea Tea Improv's underground comedy theater for curious people with a sense of humor.
Write down your problem and/or confession ANONYMOUSLY, put it in the big box, and then host Chion Wolf (WNPR, The Mouth at The Mark Twain House & Museum, the Hartford Hot Several Brass Band, Night Fall) will help you figure it all out with her panel of unqualified yet enthusiastic, thoughtful humans.
Tickets ($15): https://www.eventbrite.com/e/whats-your-problem-with-chion-wolf-tickets-34893274724
For every problem, a new audience volunteer is chosen! Sometimes working out the problems is VERY funny, and sometimes it’s deadly serious. Even better, sometimes it’s both.
At the end of the night, Chion picks one final audience volunteer randomly who gets a free pair of tickets to next month’s show, and the grand finale is a Declaration of Confessions.
Very mature children are invited, and immature adults appreciated, profanity likely.
The audio of each show will be recorded live and released later as a podcast, so if you don't want your snorting laughter or gasps of realizations broadcast to the whole world, you'd better bring your highly-effective muffling techniques.
What's Your Problem? is on the Twitters: https://twitter.com/yerproblem/
What's Your Problem? is on the Instagrams: https://www.instagram.com/yerproblem/
What's Your Problem? is on the emails: everybodyhasaproblem@gmail.com
*DISCLAIMER: This is NOT professional advice! These are people discussing all sorts of problems, telling stories, and exploring philosophical conundrums.
If you're struggling in this chaotic, cruel, funny, absurd, amazing world, and you need someone to talk to, please call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 1-800-273-8255.
What's cool is that you don't have to be suicidal to call them. You don't need to be at your lowest point to find help. You are NOT alone, and you’re always welcome at Sea Tea.

What's Your Problem? with Chion Wolf
What's Your Problem? is a live advice* show at Sea Tea Improv's underground comedy theater for curious people with a sense of humor.
Write down your problem and/or confession ANONYMOUSLY, put it in the big box, and then host Chion Wolf (WNPR, The Mouth at The Mark Twain House & Museum, the Hartford Hot Several Brass Band, Night Fall) will help you figure it all out with her panel of unqualified yet enthusiastic, thoughtful humans.
Tickets ($15): https://www.eventbrite.com/e/whats-your-problem-with-chion-wolf-tickets-34893274724
For every problem, a new audience volunteer is chosen! Sometimes working out the problems is VERY funny, and sometimes it’s deadly serious. Even better, sometimes it’s both.
At the end of the night, Chion picks one final audience volunteer randomly who gets a free pair of tickets to next month’s show, and the grand finale is a Declaration of Confessions.
Very mature children are invited, and immature adults appreciated, profanity likely.
The audio of each show will be recorded live and released later as a podcast, so if you don't want your snorting laughter or gasps of realizations broadcast to the whole world, you'd better bring your highly-effective muffling techniques.
What's Your Problem? is on the Twitters: https://twitter.com/yerproblem/
What's Your Problem? is on the Instagrams: https://www.instagram.com/yerproblem/
What's Your Problem? is on the emails: everybodyhasaproblem@gmail.com
*DISCLAIMER: This is NOT professional advice! These are people discussing all sorts of problems, telling stories, and exploring philosophical conundrums.
If you're struggling in this chaotic, cruel, funny, absurd, amazing world, and you need someone to talk to, please call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 1-800-273-8255.
What's cool is that you don't have to be suicidal to call them. You don't need to be at your lowest point to find help. You are NOT alone, and you’re always welcome at Sea Tea.

Hanging with Harold (Drop-In Event)
Hanging with Harold is not a class or a workshop. It's not a show, either. It's a "learn by doing" drop-in event where Sea Tea Improv Studios students, Sea Tea Comedy Theater performers, and members of the Connecticut improv community (that's you, just by showing up!) practice a kind of longform improv comedy together known as the Harold. Learn more about the Harold here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harold_(improvisation)
"You'll have to do about a hundred Harolds to start feeling comfortable with the form." - Matt Besser, founding member of the Upright Citizens Brigade
We track of the cumulative number of Harolds done by each participant from week to week. Each week, we will do 1, 2 or 3 Harolds (time depending), and everyone who participates will add to their Harold total. Can you reach 100 completed Harolds?
Just $5 per person via cash at the door, Venmo (@seateaimprov), or PayPal (comedy@seateaimprov.com).
