EAST OF THE MISSISSIPPI  TOUR

USING AN IMPROVISATORY STRUCTURE TO TAILOR EACH SHOW TO ITS AUDIENCE, WE PRESENT A BLEND OF ORIGINAL STAND-UP COMEDY, POETRY, AND STORYTELLING THAT GETS AT THE HEART OF OUR IDENTITIES.

DEDICATED TO HELPING STUDENTS DEVELOP THEIR OWN WORK/NARRATIVES AND RUNNING A BROAD RANGE OF TOPICS, WORKSHOPS GIVE US AN OPPORTUNITY TO CONNECT WITH STUDENTS WHILE PROVIDING THEM WITH A SPACE TO EXPLORE THEIR OWN WORK.

AFTER HONING THEIR WORK AND SKILLS THROUGH OUR WORKSHOPS, STUDENTS ARE GIVEN THE CHANCE TO TRY PERFORMANCE, EMCEE-D BY NATHAN AND AURORA. 

WE HOLD OFFICE HOURS ON ANY CAMPUS WE VISIT. THIS IS A FEW HOURS WHEN AUDIENCES GET A CHANCE TO MEET WITH US PERSONALLY - A MOMENT TO CHAT WITH US ABOUT WHO WE ARE, ABOUT THE SIMPLE THINGS THAT MAKE US HUMAN, OR ABOUT NOTHING AT ALL - JUST ENJOYING EACH OTHER'S COMPANY.
