group performance Workshops & Conferences

Since 2007 the International Institute for Critical Studies in Improvisation (formerly the Improvisation, Community, and Social Practice Research Project) has hosted dozens of colloquia. IICSI anticipates hosting annual colloquia at our University of Guelph, McGill University, and University of British Columbia sites, with regular colloquia being held at Memorial University of Newfoundland and the University of Regina – Regina Improvisation Studies Centre (RISC). We have also hosted conferences in Paris and Athens, and look forward to hosting an annual international conference.
