We know…COMEDY + BUSINESS? It seems like the two wouldn’t go together, but for over 30 years we’ve been helping businesses grow in their teamwork, communication skills, presentation skills, customer service, and more. Improv teaches you to say ‘yes and’ and think on your feet, it also gives you the tools to unlock that amazing presenter that’s been wanting to get out, or to bring your team together to achieve…ANYTHING. Below are some of our core offerings, if you don’t see one that exactly fits what you’re looking for - shoot us an email. We create custom programs for companies all the time.

WHY MaLArKEY?
The word Malarkey is not only fun to say out loud (try it) but it also perfectly encapsulates the brand spirit and energy of ‘laughter, no matter what’. It automatically puts a smile on your face and it doesn’t take itself too seriously, but it’s old timey nature makes it feel like it has stood the test of time. When we got to our brand values of Laughter, Accessibility, Inclusivity, Happiness, Joy, Comedic, Scrappy and Variety - we got an immediate sense of throwback, vaudeville meets modern times. So that's our sweet spot. And yes all our animal designs have a name. The pig is Hamilton. The rest you'll need to guess on your own.
