Nicole Miller, Director and Co-Founder of Crayons Improv, stopped by the Coca-Cola Southwest Beverages Porch to share the story and mission behind the family-friendly improvisational group based in Tulsa.

What is Crayons Improv?

Crayons Improv is a performance troupe that specializes in creating engaging, spontaneous, and humorous shows suitable for all ages. Since its inception in 2007, when the group performed at a church fundraiser, Crayons Improv has been delighting audiences with its unscripted, interactive approach to comedy.

What inspired the name?

According to Nicole, the name "Crayons" was chosen on a whim by her co-founder. Over time, it became a fitting emblem for their playful and colorful approach to improv, even incorporating crayons into their performances from time to time.
