“Philip from the BCC joined our Google team for an afternoon activity. Call it ‘team building’, ‘having fun’, ‘introduction to improv’, or all of the above: we got it. Working with a group of Google engineers, in a middle-of-the-day improv/fun/team activity is a great challenge - and Philip was able to meet and exceed our expectations. The activity was fun, engaging, made us feel good, laugh and work as a team. I would dare to say that most of us got some important life learnings about communication, collaboration, behavior and ‘be yourself’ as part of this activity. Thank you, Philip, for joining us and working with us, and thank you for bringing a different perspective to our day.”

“Many people fear public speaking. Ironically, improv is essentially public speaking without a script! Philip and Miranda brilliantly tackled this fear head-on at our team offsite. With high energy and compassion, they created a safe and playful environment for our group of 45, encouraging us to embrace spontaneity and let go of perfectionism. Their approach was incredibly effective. They helped us: Confront our fear of public speaking: By engaging in improv, we became more comfortable with thinking on our feet and speaking in front of others. Connect with our playful side: The exercises were fun and energizing, reminding us not to take ourselves too seriously. Boost team morale: Laughter and shared experiences strengthened our bond as a team. Philip and Miranda were fantastic! They set the perfect tone for our offsite, fostering a sense of freedom and playfulness that energized and connected the entire team.”

““Andy from the BCC was beyond impactful and the team was raving about the session.””

“I found the improv workshop to be an incredible experience, and the skills you presented were
very much applicable to the consulting world.”

“Philip led a fantastic improv session for us. It was engaging, dynamic, and kept the session brisk and relevant to our work — no small feat at the tail end of a half-day meeting in a room of nearly 400 people! I’d highly recommend Philip to anyone looking to bring fun and energy into a professional event.”

““My team loved the improv workshop. BCC did a great job of incorporating exercises that were spot-on for
their responsibilities! The workshop provided a perfect balance of self-reflection and entertainment. Participants gained useful skills, and it was a great ice-breaker for newer people on the team as well. ”

“The team raved about the session and mentioned it was one of the best workshops they’d ever had in a corporate setting and that they could immediately see the value of it so thank you so much!”

“Philip led our quarterly company event. I think everyone was very nervous about the event prior to going but as soon as we started the first exercise, everyone loosened up and even the most introverted people on our team loved it! After the event everyone couldn’t stop raving about how much fun they had. Philip does a great job of mixing work scenarios with improv exercises that are fun and easily transferable to a professional environment. After just 90 mins our team was much closer and I would definitely recommend Philip / Brooklyn Comedy Collective to other companies looking to break the ice. Thanks Philip!”

“Philip & Carley from the BCC led our team in a Corporate Improv Workshop, and in the midst of today’s virtual climate, and they did such an incredible job leading through improv to show us how to be creative, trust each other, accept different ideas, push through mistakes,
and build on other people’s ideas. The exercises & activities were engaging, made us laugh, allowed us to open up, and gave us all the ability to see others through a personal lens instead of solely a professional one. Thank you for your time, leadership & positive energy, I hope others have the pleasure of working with you!”

“Working with Philip and the other instructors from the Brooklyn Comedy Collective was one of the best decisions we made in designing our training for orientation leaders. We’ve used other comedy schools in the past to provide our students with this type of experience but the energy level, ability to connect and engage with our students and expertise from the Brooklyn Comedy Collective was unmatched. It was immediately apparent that they found a way to boost our orientation team’s confidence and helped them to unlock our student staff’s natural abilities and talents. The orientation leaders are still talking about the games and methods that Philip and the instructors taught them days later. In only 90 minutes, the BCC transformed my staff.”

“We hired the BCC for a group who had no experience whatsoever with improv. Philip, the BCC instructor, led a dynamic workshop - he knows how to make any group feel comfortable, communicate better, and most importantly, have fun while doing it.”

“This improv workshops offered our team great advice on improvising self-awareness, teamwork, and brainstorming activities. I would recommend it to any business owner as a fun team-building exercise.”

“It was an incredible addition to our team offsite. Many team members mentioned how much fun they had and how skilled the BCC instructors were at getting everyone comfortable and participating - the experience was not at all as intimidating as they had imagined an improv wrokshops would be. The techniques and mindset that were taught are immediately useful in their day-day and they intend to make a habit of applying these newly acquired skills. ”

“Philip from the BCC led a fabulous workshops for our team, focused on linking improv to our everyday work environment. He is a high energy facilitator who created a fun platform for the ultimate learning experience. A must for your team to understand stronger way to communicate.”
