Improv Show Production Workshop

Behind every great improv show is a great producer! In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn the essential skills needed to bring an improv comedy show from idea to stage. Whether you're launching your multi-team showcase, running a themed show, or spotlighting a particular improv format, this class covers everything from casting to marketing, tech basics, and creating a welcoming experience for both performers and audiences. We’ll also explore how to build show formats, curate lineups, and troubleshoot the unexpected with confidence and creativity. Ideal for performers, team leaders, and aspiring producers, this workshop will give you the tools to turn your comedy vision into a well-run, crowd-pleasing reality.

Daytime workshops at the Big Couch Binge offer something for improvisers of all levels—from those just starting out to seasoned performers looking to deepen their skills. This particular workshop does require basic improv knowledge, but it is best designed for folks with advanced knowledge who are ready to launch their own show.

And, don't forget about our multi-workshop passes that provide a discount when taking more than one workshop on either day. See our full event page for workshop bundles.
