Every summer, students from across the country gather together on the campus of Bishop’s University to immerse themselves, for one week, in the world of improvised theatre through a program called Improv U. “Imagine you have a play but there are no scripts; all the actors have to decide what to say in exactly that moment while there are also suggestions coming in from the audience,“ said Carter Marion, an 18 year-old camper from Chatham-Kent Ontario who is attending the program for the second year in a row.
