Read through our offerings and we think you’ll
be surprised by our original and exciting approaches to conventional
training workshops and corporate entertainment.
Improvised Entertainment
Does your company party need something more
entertaining than the scandalous use of a Xerox machine? Let
Magnet Theater’s talented and experienced professionals
perform a hilarious improvised and interactive show. Using suggestions
from the audience, we’ll create memorable scenes that
will have your employees laughing long after the catering runs
out. Magnet’s improvised performances are a low-tech,
yet equally funny option to our customized sketch shows and
are great for:
Customized
Sketch Comedy
Our writer/performers will work with your company
to deliver a live performance with a targeted message. We can
create sketches to introduce new products to the marketplace,
communicate branding messages, showcase company initiatives,
or lampoon inter-office antics. Sketch shows can be as complex
or as simple as you like, and you will have final approval in
every step of the creative process. Magnet’s customized
sketch comedy can do the impossible:
- Make a sales event memorable
- Get a laugh out of purchasing agents and accountants
- Add excitement to policy meetings
Training Workshops
Improvisational techniques cultivate quick
and creative thinking, trust, confidence, and effective communication
– skills that are as useful in the boardroom as they are
on stage. Our workshops are fast-paced, interactive, and fun.
If having fun during the work week is too jarring, we'll be
happy to come in over the weekend. Plus, we don’t vanish
after the workshop ends. Magnet will leave your staff with customized
tools such as creativity-boosting workbooks that will help recall
Magnet’s techniques long after the workshop ends.
Magnet instructors have trained and inspired
thousands of students and business professionals. They know
how to pinpoint individual strengths and weaknesses in order
to improve your staff’s performance.
From technology to investment banking to marine
biology, every sector uses improvisation every day. “Winging
it” is an inevitability in business, but Magnet’s
instructors can help your company turn those unplanned moments
into positive results. We will work with you to tailor a workshop
for your specific needs. For sample agendas, email our coordinating
producer, Scott Sherman.
Media
Production Services
Want the experience of a customized sketch
comedy show in a convenient DVD format? How about a series of
webisodes to highlight new services on the internet? Magnet’s
creative team can produce high-quality video content for your
company that provides the creative spark that most industrials
lack. From writing to casting, or custom graphics or animations,
Magnet is ready to provide a comic sheen to your presentation,
whatever medium or format.
Comic Relief
Enhance your convention, product launch, or
meeting with a touch of comedy. Quick comedic interludes between
speeches will refocus and reinvigorate your audience. Whether
it’s an improvised Q&A with audience members, a short
sketch that puts the speaker’s words into action, or a
fake, not-quite-right-in-the-head speaker from the competition,
Magnet will keep your audience captivated.
