See the video here: https://youtu.be/R_Hd9lOJ1Tg. What is applied improvisation and how can organizations stand to benefit from it? What are UnScripted Productions' 5 core principles of improv? I'm an introvert- when I hear "improv" I want to dig a hole and hide forever, what do you have to say to me? So you teach theology and run an improv studio... that's a strange combination. Will Dennis (https://www.linkedin.com/in/williamjdennis/) is the owner and operator of UnScripted Productions, an improv studio in Bucks County, PA offering classes, group events, corporate workshops and live performances. As an entrepreneur, he also has a breadth of experience in a number of different fields including fundraising, education, management, and professional theater (Will is a proud member of Actors Equity Association). UnScripted Productions has been working with companies and organizations across a spectrum of industries: from dentistry to accounting to marketing to pharmaceuticals to research analysis to teaching, and everything in between, to introduce applied improvisation as a method to transform leaders, teams and culture in the workplace. In addition to his work with UnScripted, Will also teaches World Religions and Discernment at a local private high school. Will lives in Newtown, PA with his wife, Danielle, daughter Hope and chihuahua, Mumford.
