“Left Right TIM Improv Comedy.”
Through humility, humor, and trust, Left Right Tim aims to foster an inclusive, creative space for students to be their most authentic selves. Left Right Tim not only aims to teach the value of improvisational comedy to students, but strives to develop a supportive, fun environment for the greater Boulder community to gather.
