Our Mission

What We Offer

The world runs on stories. The kind that unfold in lecture halls and zoom meetings, in awkward icebreakers and unexpected brainstorm sessions. Great stories start with an idea, but sometimes we need that “yes, and…” to carry us somewhere new.

Every story, even the ones that happen in real life, follow a journey. There’s a challenge, a change, and often, an unexpected moment of clarity.

Together, using the power of improv, we can unlock these journeys and embrace the unexpected; helping students, teams, and individuals to step into their story with confidence, creativity, and connection.

Whether you're an educational institution looking to support student wellbeing, a company looking to build stronger teams, or an individual wanting to speak up, stand out, and think on your feet... we’re here!

We take a holistic approach to learning, helping people grow not just as thinkers, but as communicators, teammates, and leaders. Especially when it counts.

With the advancements of generative AI, the most sought-after skill set for future employees will be outside-of-the-box thinking, interpersonal skills, and technological application. With our workshops, participants will learn to unleash their creativity, and unlock their full potential.

At Unscripted Academy, we are preparing individuals for the future of work.
