Improv Essentials 

Excused Absence Comedy is the youth program at ColdTowne Theater. We offer improv, sketch and stand up training to kids and teens in Austin, Texas and beyond. Taught by some of Austin's best comics, our year round classes, house troupes, and camps invite a diverse group of young people to hone their comedy skills while benefitting from the social and emotional tools improv provides.We produce two weekly, all ages shows year round. What's the Story Steve is a Saturday morning improv show, designed for for families and performed by a skilled, adult cast. Excused Absence Night is every Sunday at 5 and includes both youth and adult acts to allow youth to see both peers and pro's perform. The show ends in an improv jam, for those who wish to get up and give it a try!Excused Absence Fest is a yearly all ages comedy festival that features two days of live performance and workshops. It's the only youth centered comedy festival in Texas!
