The five-day Ocean State Improv Festival brings together artists and troupes to create an interconnected community that teaches, learns, inspires, and performs together on Rhode Island’s beautiful southern coast!
Nightly performances showcase the fantastic talents of performers from all over the world. 11 performances, including mixers, featuring 15-20 troupes total.
A broad slate of workshops and multi-day intensives by top-flight teachers immerse you in new experiences, passions, and a worldwide network of inspiring collaborators.
“Mixer shows” (Theatresports, Micetro, Pirate, and the Duo Bracket Challenge) and workshop showcases let individual artists and members of troupes perform alongside new friends.
Connect with members of the world-wide improv community!
The Ocean State Improv Festival seeks troupes to join us as performers and learners! The festival welcomes all groups to apply, but we are particularly interested in having performances with a theatrical/narrative bent! Over the years, we have had troupes with a wide variety of styles and backgrounds, so we are open to anything.
Troupes will receive a set between 20 and 30 minutes in length. Some troupes may receive two sets, but this is not guaranteed.
See website for schedule and tickets.
