France's first theater entirely dedicated to improvisation, offers an eclectic program to give you a unique, interactive experience every evening.
Imagine a magnificent theater in Lyon devoted entirely to improvisation. In this space, a whole community of actors share the stage, their experience, their fame, their know-how and their common passion.
L'Improvidence welcomes you every evening to its 50-seat auditorium. A rich program featuring amateur and professional companies from France and abroad. There's something for everyone: improv wrestling, solo or group shows, drawing, music or even English, come and take part with the actors in the creation of a unique show!
In addition to performances, Improvidence is actively involved in training and developing improvisation skills. Its school offers workshops and courses adapted to all levels, enabling participants to develop their creativity, self-confidence and ability to let go.
The theater also offers services to companies, such as seminars, team-building events and customized training courses. These interventions use improvisation techniques to strengthen team cohesion, stimulate creativity and improve communication within organizations.
