Improv Hi

Awesomely Funny ! We really admire and respect Improvhi. They we're slapstick funny. It takes a special person to act on the dime in front of people they don't know. I loved loved loved the Rap it antics & the Christmas Switch scene. We will definitely be back again. 1st Saturday of the month it's free to the public. All you have to do is sign up and be on time. Make sure to leave a donation at the end of the show. It's well worth seeing again and again.Note...I did state in my Tip that they don't validate parking. At the end of the show, the team does provide you with a Pitch Sports Bar coupon to enjoy 10% off & Pitch will validate your parking. How sweet is that

Just saw an improvhi show at the RevoluSun space above Moku Kitchen. SO MUCH FUN! Plus the show was FREE! They said they have a free show every 1st Saturday. Definitely going to plan a girls night and come next month! Highly recommended!

I haven't been to the Improv HI location but I did manage to see some of the actors of Improv Hi perform at The Scratch Paper Sketch Comedy Show at the Kaka'ako Agora on Saturday night October 3, 2015.I enjoyed watching the actors read from the manuscripts and watching the facial expressions in their rough draft stage. I also liked it when few of the actors did the hand motions during their readings. I would like to see the actors memorize their lines and see how the final short comedy sketch will turn out on screen. I also enjoyed watching the previously recorded short films that other members of Improv Hi had done. The short film that I really enjoyed was comedian actor Kevin Yee's GAY LOVE. It had a catchy tune that the audience members sang a long "You can't get pregnant from Gay Love." Kimee, the founder of Improv Hi, mentioned to the audience that anyone can participate and write comedy sketches by attending the workshops. I can already imagine my updated review for Leonard's Bakery as a short comedy sketch.

OMG!! This was hilarious!!! Loved it!! Took my husband and son & my sons gf along & they too LOVED IT! They wanna go back for another one. Thank you folks for the funny entertainment. We enjoyed ourselves a lot. Looking forward to another night of ImProv. Til then... HAPPY HOLIDAYS & malama pono. Aloha...

Great shows. Great cast and teams. Tons of learning opportunities and shows online and in person. Kimee Balmilero is amazing. Thank you for keeping Hawai'i laughing and singing over the years. Looking forward to what's next. Mahalo plenty!

Huge Fan!Almost no where else can you go to a place that has the opportunities that HI has.Yes- I lived in Chicago and I went to a few Second City Shows- but honestly the shows I attended had some real junk comedians when it was there live. No James Belushi by far.....Here is a real chance for HI stars to start to shine or at least learn the skills needed and talk to enough of those trying to make it in LA. For the amount of work it takes to put on a show - they have the time money and energy needed in full so that they are able to so do a spot on job that is entertaining to not just HI but a whole wide crowd.Super worth it to check out any or all of their events!Great for young actors or us old hands that just want to step up our game some.

I've been to a couple of Improv HI shows. No doubt, they are the real deal! I've been to improv shows in LA and Chicago and these guys are at that level. What I'm saying is: Side-busting laughter is guaranteed!SO much talent in the Improv HI troupe. The musical segments are particularly impressive, with the added challenge of improvising melodies. Like straight-up improv isn't challenging enough?Their monthly shows used to be at the Pagoda Restaurant, but now they perform at Marks Garage in Chinatown. If you're a fan of Whose Line Is It Anyway? please check them out and support our local performing arts scene. They. Are. Good. No. GRRRREAT.Improv HI also offers a slew of improv classes, which I highly recommend taking. Even if you don't have dreams of becoming the next Wayne Brady, improv is an applicable skill you can take with you in your personal and professional life.

Amazing classes and instructors! So much fun and you learn a ton. You get to end each "series" with a showcase so that you can practice your skills in front of an audience. Not as scary as it sounds- your instructors prepare you and your classmates always have your back. Definitely check it out and at least give it a try!

Improv isn't just for people who want to pursue a career in the arts, it's also a great skill set for ANYONE who wants to become a better communicator. When my friend mentioned that she wanted to be more comfortable making presentations, I suggested an improv workshop to help her get to the next level.At the time, I was also seeking a confidence boost when communicating with my boss and colleagues. Last year, I started an "encore career" in social services and knew nothing. Everything was new and when I'm uncomfortable with a subject area, I stutter and sweat A LOT. It was very ugly and I knew I needed to kick those habits if I ever wanted to sound remotely intelligent. My friend and I signed up for "Twerk your Brain!", an improv workshop for business professionals. There were about 10 people in the workshop and all of us had similar areas we wanted to improve. Through improv techniques and a bunch of fun games, our brains were twerking through the discomfort and getting cozy as better communicators.This class was fun and I felt a significant difference in the way I approach things. I'm not as stressed to know all of the details and feel more confident to trust that I know what to say. When I really have no clue, I now have some tools to speak as if I do. GREAT workshop for anyone who wants to be a better communicator! I definitely think this should replace any boring powerpoint at orientations. Excellent!

We got the pleasure to see both improv shows on July 6th while my family was on vacation on Oahu. We have not laughed that hard in years. Thank you to the improv Hi team for an amazing unforgettable night.
