This Is Not a Show: You’re Going to Meet New Friends
Making new friends as an adult is hard. Whether you’re new in town or dealing with a heavy work schedule, the digital world doesn’t make it easy to forge new connections. BuddyUp is a low-pressure social experience blending improv, and conversation to help people connect more naturally. Find who gets you and your sense of humor in a structured and pressure-free way.
Why Improv?
Improv takes the pressure off. It’s all about being present, listening, and saying “yes” to the moment. We use the tools of improv to strip away the awkwardness of meeting new people. By stepping into a lighthearted “what if” version of yourself, the pressure to be “perfect” disappears, making room for genuine laughter.
How It Works
You’ll be guided through a series of short, engaged friendly rotations where you can explore a slightly different version of your own life path. Think of it as a “choose your own adventure.” Our expert facilitators will be there to keep the energy high and the vibes low-pressure, ensuring the only thing you have to focus on is having a great time. Everyone will be participating at the same time, so you’ll never be put ‘on the spot’.
