In this series of hour-long workshops, participants are prompted by specific questions to recount the most significant events of their lives. The written stories in these classes unfold like great novels told by the people who lived them, each a unique piece of history. Another benefit of these meetings are the relationships and sense of community that participants gain, a much welcome by-product of sharing the details of their lives.

This Interactive Improv Class is specifically designed to engage seniors. The Laughter On Call team uses tried and true comedy exercises to encourage participants to use their imagination, keep their minds sharp and, of course, laugh together. There are no wrong answers, just an opportunity to enjoy time with their peers experiencing the spontaneous use of their imagination. These classes serve the dual function of keeping students minds flexible and spirits lightened! As the class progresses, participants craft personal stories and write sketches.
