Mockingbird Improv was founded in 2021 as the only non profit improv theater in San Diego. We strive to be a home for artists to express themselves and build community. Improv is all about playing and having fun. Connecting to an inner child that too many of us tend to neglect. We are a place for creativity, laughter, and above all else, joy.

Our Mission

Mockingbird Improv’s mission is to provide connection, joy, and opportunities for self-expression to the local community. We serve all parts of our community including youth and underserved individuals by engaging in high-quality training and performances and providing a supportive and empowering space for fun, silliness and growth through equitable, diverse and inclusive practices. Through our programs, performers, patrons, and students can express creativity, build confidence, and cultivate joy through laughter and play.

Mockingbird Improv is asking you to help us this Giving Tuesday.

Art helps us heal. Art lets us feel. Art keeps us real.

Art Matters

Help us sustain a community or improvisers, teachers, students, and artists
