pH has a very cool college program, known as the pHarm program. pH goes in to Chicago area colleges and helps set up an improv troupe. pH sends veteran cast members to help coach these college teams with the end goal being regular performances on and off campus. pH teaches the college groups the basics of improv and teamwork and helps them learn their hit show, pHrenzy for performance. Members of the pHarm teams are also invited to perform with pH in their mainstage show, pHrenzy, on occasion. The eventual goal is to create a network of college pHarm teams and host annual festivals and competitions where college students can get to know other people from other schools that are involved in the art of improv.
pH feels that by teaching improv to college students it helps spread the fun of improv early on and gives college students a creative outlet. pH is also the only Chicago comedy theater to invite college students on stage with them during their primetime shows.
pH currently has pHarm Teams at Loyola University, Columbia College and DePaul University! We are always looking to add more...if you are a college and are interested in having a pHarm Team at your school, please contact, Jason Geis.
