Since 2002, "Eight is NEVER Enough!" has delivered over 5000 shows in Times Square and touring nationwide. This energetic professional cast comes from a variety of backgrounds including the dramatic stage, film, tv, stand-up, opera, classical and musical theatre.  Turn the "8" on its side and you will find an infinity sign: "nothing is ever enough". There is no such thing as too much heart and energy on stage or in life. Eight is NEVER Enough has a variety of influences including classic theatrical and television comedy shows from the 20th century. As one of the few NY-based improv companies focusing on short-form improvisation, the company performs up to 15 performances every week for student groups and touring shows. Audience participation is always key as each show incorporates volunteers and ideas from the crowd into every scene, skit and song. Specializing in music, physical comedy and old school slapstick, EIGHT presents high energy shows combining original characters and improvised musical songs.

EIGHT IS NEVER ENOUGH classes bring that same BIG CHOICES approach to Improv and Stand-Up comedy. Classes for professional performers, adults self-enrichment, teens and kids all start with one philosophy, "HAVE FUN!" Erase all fears and let go, then see what your own mind and souls can create...

So, I'm giving this 5 stars because the teacher, Nick was really amazing. He was so patient and good with the kids (who didn't always make it easy). I will say-- there were adults and teenagers and younger kids in the same class. This was super fun for my 7.5 year old who learned a lot from the teens (who were very, very funny). I was expecting a different format, but what I actually wanted was Improv, and it was 2 hours of improv. So-- a heads up, this was an improv class.

I really enjoyed the free improv class last year. I remember whoever ran it did a great job and I felt comfortable participating. I would recommend it to anyone, especially someone who considers themselves an introvert.

I met Walt and many others in this class. The class is great, Walt is great, funny, energetic, and knows what he is doing. The class has good number of students - not too little to be too boring, not too much to not get any chance. The students and Walt shall bring the best out of you, even if you are breaking a sweat. I shall go here again, if I have time.

Our 8 year old just finished her second class, she is obsessed. We are beyond thrilled to have found this outlet for her, being able to get a class out of NYC in suburban Massachusetts is amazing!!!
