This holiday season, we extend our sincere thanks to Peter Barg for his service to Compass Improv. His leadership and dedication have helped shape the organization, and we wish him every success in his next venture.
As we look ahead, the Board is excited to continue shepherding Compass Improv and working together to expand the art of improv throughout the St. Louis region—building connection, creativity, and community through laughter.
We wish everyone a joyful holiday season and look forward to all that 2026 holds for improv in St. Louis.
With gratitude and optimism,
The Compass Improv Board
