Unthinkable is an inclusive comedy community built for all kids and teens to indulge in their imaginations, expand their listening skills, build confidence, and simply be themselves through the art of improv and storytelling.
Our approach
At Unthinkable comedy, our curriculum leverages playful games, collaborative exercises and imagination stretching activities to build a foundational understanding of both short and long form improv comedy. Oh, and a quick PSA: Improv is for everyone, from the extroverted class clown to the shy, quiet type - our classes aim to be safe spaces that empower every player to, well, do the unthinkable.
Check out our core improv values below.
Be kind, together
Respect and root for each other every step of the way.
Silly with a side of smart
Fart jokes are fun, but challenge yourself to think outside the (fart) box.
ABYA: Always be yes and-ing
Accept others' ideas
and add to them.
Follow the fun
Embrace the interesting or unusual things you find along the way.
Be present
Make sure your mind is where your body is to actively listen and participate.

Our story
Hello! We are Sarah & Gary,
Co-founders of Unthinkable Comedy.
We are two NY-based comedians, improvisers and professional adult humans who also happen to be married with two kids, living in Westchester, NY. After spending over a decade performing, producing and training at New York improv institutions such as Upright Citizen's Brigade, The People's Improv Theater (The PIT) and more, while also growing our careers in learning & development, program management and strategic partnerships, we founded Unthinkable Comedy with a vision of creating an accessible and inclusive improv comedy program for kids. While Unthinkable is a shared dream of ours, we hope to bring this vision to life alongside young people of all ages, providing an outlet for their silly side, a safe space to be themselves, and if they happen to fall in love with comedy along the way, fantastic! We're thrilled you're here, reading this sentence, and we hope to see you and your family soon!
