Improv Playhouse Community Outreach & Education

I extend my heartfelt gratitude to my unwavering pillars of strength—my Faith, my loving wife and family, dedicated staff, loyal patrons, talented students, and the entire community. Your continuous encouragement, support, and collaboration have been instrumental in our collective success. This achievement isn't just about Improv Playhouse; it's a celebration of resilience, teamwork, and the indomitable spirit of our community. Through highs and lows, your commitment has helped us not only weather storms but emerge stronger and more vibrant. Improv Playhouse is more than a space for performing arts—it's a hub for artistic and human development, leaving a lasting impact on our local community and beyond. Our outreach programs have touched lives, and together, we've elevated the human spirit through the sheer joy of the performing arts. I am deeply grateful for the collaborative business environment that has played a pivotal role in shaping the success of Improv Playhouse. The support and camaraderie of fellow businesses in the community have been invaluable. Together, we've created a thriving ecosystem that fosters growth and shared prosperity. Thank you for being integral pieces of the puzzle. Your collaboration has not only strengthened our local business community but has also enriched the cultural tapestry of Libertyville. A special note of appreciation goes out to our esteemed school district partners...especially Libertyville D70. The collaboration with local schools has been instrumental in bridging the gap between education and the arts. Working hand in hand with the school district has allowed us to contribute meaningfully to the development of young minds and inspire a lifelong love for the performing arts. Here's to the power of unity and shared goals! Here's to the incredible journey so far, and to the exciting chapters yet to unfold. Thank you, Libertyville, for being the canvas upon which we paint stories of inspiration, creativity, and shared joy. Let's continue to build and uplift together!

Libertyville honors eight businesses for contributions to community, local economy New and established Libertyville businesses were among those selected for recognition based on public nominations in five categories: community impact; economic impact; development excellence; notable new business; and, advancement.

Together, we got this!

We want to thank you for your support, loyalty and empowerment of the Arts in Lake County through Improv Playhouse Theater and Training Center!

Improv Playhouse Outreach had a great time engaging VHHS (Vernon Hills High School) developing tools and messaging for SPARK (Supporting Peers and Reaching Kids) and VIP (Voices in Prevention) club students. Thanks to Amy Dillon for having us lead this terrific, annual event. Shout out to VHHS staffers Doug Dusthimer and Leslie Nardini for assistance. Selfie of our team.
