At the first Dallas Youth Improv Festival March 28-29, young performers can laugh, learn, and connect at Stomping Ground Comedy. The weekend will feature comedy shows by local youth improv teams, workshops taught by Stomping Ground youth staff, and opportunities for young people to meet other young comedians.

The weekend of comedy kicks off on Friday with the Kickoff Mixer & Improv Jam, where seasoned and aspiring improv performers alike can mix, mingle, and hit the stage. Improv jams are a quintessential tradition in improv culture; they provide stage time for experienced performers and allow people who want to try improv for the first time to do so in a fun, supportive environment.

Arrival begins at 5:30 pm; at 6 pm attendees will be split into age groups to meet and do improv warm-ups together before taking the stage. This is a "come and go" event and attendees are not required to attend the full event.

The jam will be hosted by Stomping Ground Youth staff and Greenhill improv troupe members.

Ages 10-17. Registration is FREE. Performers are welcome to bring food and drink; snacks are also available for purchase at the Box Office. For the most current information on what to expect when heading to Stomping Ground visit our FAQ page.
