The Improv Show is meant to be a live performance where actors can create scenes and dialogue on the spot through games they make up. Often taking suggestions from the live audience, leading to spontaneous and funny moments.

A show for the actors to be quick thinking, have fun, and make memories here at Redwood.

Colton Hayes, ‘25, says, “The show went really well. We got a lot of laughs and it was really fun. Just a good vibe from everyone, and you could just tell everyone who was acting had a fun time too.” 

Although Hayes was nervous due to the spontaneous aspect of the show, he wasn’t the only one to feel that way.

Katy Robles, ‘25, says, “I was kind of nervous because I’m not really great at thinking on the spot, but after I had done a few games I was getting more excited, because it was just fun to make things up with my friends.”

With games like home shopping, interviews, questions, abcs, taxi, and more, they put on an amazing performance that everyone seemed to really enjoy.

Although the actors had a really good time it seemed like the audience did too. Melina Carillo, ‘25, says, “We had a really good audience that was just eating it up and seemed to really enjoy it along with us.”

In the end, it seemed to be an amazing way to spend a Friday night just like Galvan said to everyone.

Brynnlie Travis, ‘26, says, “The show went really well. We had a great audience. In some of the games we do on stage, we take audience suggestions, and they did a lot of fun things, such as referencing ‘Mean Girls’ and popular media as well as movies.”
