Trust us, this is all completely remarkable…

This week The New Movement is sponsoring and hosting Trust Us, This Is All Made Up, the heralded documentary featuring the work of improvisers TJ Jagodowski and David Pasquesi at the Alamo Drafthouse.  We couldn’t be more thrilled to be involved because we think TJ & Dave are absolute legends and anything we do at the Alamo Drafthouse is always super fun.  Show times are Monday at 7:00p and Wednesday at 9:45p at the Alamo Ritz downtown.  Get your tickets in advance!

Topical Jokes from the Future, our  sketch show written by The New Movement’s sketch comedy writing program debuted this past weekend with a sold out show!  You have one more chance to see it!  Our final show will be Tuesday night at 8:30p. Get your tickets online to reserve your seat!

It’s upon us!  It has descended!  Can you feel it in the air?  It’s that time of the year again and we are so totally geared up and ready to blow it up – SXSW! SXSW! SXSW!  The New Movement Theater, staff & students are pretty heavily involved in a whole bunch of SXSW activities.  Check us out, we’ll check you out.  We’ll be hosting events at our theater as well as other venues around town.  Let’s be delighted.

Need information on upcoming Austin improv classes?  We are registering new students all the time! Call or email us with questions and to get in on the fun.

Parking

It’s so easy to park at The New Movement. Both Rosewood and Chicon have street parking for miles (literally, we think). Get the spot right in front of the theater doors and you get bragging rights all class long.

Cap Metro

Good for you, fellow bus rider! If you’re coming from downtown or east of Airport Blvd., the #2 will land you right in front of us. If you’re coming from anywhere else, chances are you’re near a #21, #22 or #320, and all of those will do the same (the 320 includes a 5 minute walk but walking is cool, right?).

Bicycle

We’ve got your back, bike rider. Chicon recently added bike lanes and the Nubian Queen Lola has some pretty fantastic bike racks out front. And if you’re riding your bike in the rain for some reason we’d love to keep it dry inside the theater!
