Description
Kristin Henn, founder of Excused Absences and Move Your Tale, has brought Improv to Blackshear this year! She is one of our Fine Arts providers - currently teaching 2nd and 3rd graders. She has generously donated the following: -One Week of Summer (2026) Improv Camp (typically 9am to 4pm) *PK through high school* From playful, story driven performing arts classes focused on listening, flexibility, and creative collaboration to game based early Improv with an emphasis on supporting and building on one another’s ideas, listening to find the funny, and flexible, creative collaboration to essential Improv and performance skills with a focus on listening, saying yes to other’s ideas, and finding the fun in what’s already there to game based Improv with an emphasis on supporting and building on one another’s ideas, listening to find the funny and flexible, creative collaboration to next level improv for those who have mastered the basics and are ready to level up in their Improv journey. There is a camp for everyone! https://excusedabsence.com Here's the story of how it all started: Once upon a time, I had two little girls and a whole bunch of stories to tell. The little girls liked my stories, but I wanted a bigger audience. So, I decided to teach a class for them and their friends that would let us make up stories together. It was called Move Your Tale, and it was really fun. But once we started telling stories together, I wanted to tell stories to an even BIGGER audience. So I began telling them at libraries and schools and wherever else they’d have me. Meanwhile, the classes grew and the stories grew and I needed more space and more interesting ways to tell and better ways to teach. *PTA will connect winner with Excused Absences after the Auction** Location: -Camps are held at Coldtowne Theater: located at 1700 E. 2nd Street, Austin, TX 78702.
