Free Musical Improv Jam is a one-hour community workshop where participants play theater games and make up songs on the spot with a live accompanist. The session is led by members of the Broken Records musical improv team, who guide the group through vocal warmups before opening the stage to anyone who wants to try. This event is open to all skill levels, making it a comfortable fit for high schoolers and adults who enjoy theater. There is no cost to participate, and you do not need to bring anything but your voice. The theater is located in Durham, and you should plan to arrive ten minutes early to find parking and get settled before the warmups begin. It is a smart addition to your Saturday evening plans if you have a teenager who loves drama club or if you simply want a lighthearted, active way to kick off the weekend before heading out to dinner nearby.
