Somers Compton's love affair with improv began 13 years ago when watching long form shows at improv theaters in NYC and Chicago. When she founded the HIT with her husband, she decided to get out of the seats and onto the stage and fell in love with improv training. Not having a drive to perform, Her passion for improv education is purely for the personal connections that are made by doing it, and the personal development one can experience while taking improv classes.
