Climate Survey

Known for their award-winning vaudeville-inspired performances and physical comedy, Chris and Paul brought their unique energy and expertise to our students. Participants explored character development, improv and sketch techniques, physicality in performance, and the power of silence and stage presence. Through engaging, hands-on activities, students were encouraged to take creative risks and build confidence.

They examined the landmark case New York Times v. Sullivan, debating whether the Supreme Court’s ruling should be upheld or overturned.
