Improv in Libraries

Since 2020, Unscripted has worked with several libraries for a variety of programming. We’ve delivered direct improv workshops to youth and adult library patrons, and also provided several workshops for librarians and library staff.

Our ongoing partnership with the TN State Library and Archives has allowed us the opportunity to deliver keynote presentations and trainings to librarians from across the country. Previous programs have focused on building confidence in extemporaneous speaking, community building, and more.

Metro Nashville Public Schools EL Coaches

Unscripted partnered with MNPS EL Coaches for a professional development workshop focused on culturally responsive teaching. The workshop used Zaretta Hammond text “Culturally Responsive Teaching & the Brain” to frame discussion points after each improv exercise.
