THEY improv began with Todd Rice, our Director. Todd had worked a variety of jobs in the business world including having been employed by the FAA through Martin-Marietta Air Traffic Systems, by the Speaker of the House of Representatives, worked on the floor of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, for a hedge fund in Chicago, and was the CEO of a smaller technology company. All the while he trained and performed at The Second City, Improv Olympic and many other prominent theaters. Over the years, he made contacts with great performers all over the country and started bringing some of the best performers together to help raise money for charities, calling the shows Comedy With a Cause. These shows started getting larger and companies started taking an interest.

While initially focused in the US, the group expanded. THEY improv has performed for organizations in Mexico, the Caribbean, most of the major nations in Europe, several locations in Asia and Latin America, all while utilizing local performers as much as possible. Consulting with clients from multi-national companies, our performers have helped some of the largest of organizations to succeed. This includes events throughout Africa.

We do concentrate on working in English as there are others operating in other languages and we aren't looking to put them out of business. We created this site to help our current clients who have operations in th continent. Our future in Europe looks brighter than ever and we have made arrangements to perform just about anywhere you might want to be.

Our Director, Todd Rice, has always had a knack for finding unique ways to provide team building while having employees smile along the way. This has led to a wide array of options for entertainment, team building and business consulting.

Consult with us to better determine how to achieve your corporate goals without anyone knowing that you are doing anything other than providing entertainment. Our Murder Mystery Dinner Shows, Game Shows, Team Building Workshops, Scavenger Hunts, and Improv Comedy Shows can all be used for bonding your employees to provide team buliding throughout Africa.
