Improv Studio – Unleash Your Creativity!
Improv Studio is a lively, inventive, and playful group of students exploring the art of improvisation under the guidance of actor and educator Vytautas Kontrimas. Established in the 2021/2022 academic year, this initiative quickly became a hit and culminated in the first-ever Improv Battle at Vilnius University. Improvisation is much more than acting—it’s about learning to think on your feet, communicate effectively, and express yourself with confidence. Through engaging theater games, you’ll develop essential skills useful for teamwork, presentations, and leadership roles. No prior theater experience is needed—just bring your enthusiasm and enjoy the journey of self-discovery and creativity!
