You’ve taken improv classes, and you’ve caught the bug! You’re addicted to the audience! You want to perform all the time! But what do you do next? Well, you come to this workshop and learn how to start your own indie team. We’ll talk about ideating formats, casting, finding a coach, booking shows, marketing and more.

More About The Instructor:
Mia Iseman took her first improv class in 2012 at the Hideout Theatre in Austin, TX because playing Ultimate for her main hobby was honestly too painful. Since that first class, she was hooked and took full advantage of the booming and supportive Austin comedy scene. She performed often on the main stage and house teams at Hideout, Coldtowne, Fallout, and more, participating in formats ranging from genre-based narratives to weekly Armandos, including a few Out of Bounds headline shows. In 2019, she moved to Washington, where she has played with the indie team Buttholes (what a great name, looks professional in a bio), played Jackbox games (like the rest of us during the pandemic), gotten back in front of an audience with Bandit Theater, and formed her own indie team, Old AF. She’s learned a lot of stuff about a lot of things along the way and can’t wait to share it with anyone who will appreciate it even slightly more than her toddlers do.
