Raising A Round?

OffScript is a night of improv built for Founders and Teams . Get thrown off on purpose, and practice reacting instead of reciting. Prepare for the moment where the plan falls apart and you just have to... go.

What to expect:

  • Improv games built for founders and teams

  • Group and breakout exercises that surface how you and your team think under pressure

  • Drinks, conversation, and a room full of people who get it

  • Hosted each month by a performer from NYC's comedy and improv scene

$20 per ticket, non-refundable.

Every other month.

Limited spots to give everyone a chance to participate, perform, and connect.
