Improv The Hippodrome Improvisational Teen Theatre (HITT) program is an award-winning prevention and intervention program that has helped over 52,000 young people build the skills they need to protect them from addiction, violence and mental health issues.

It targets 100 percent at-risk youth from diverse backgrounds and ethnic populations, primarily economically disadvantaged, underserved and minority youth. It combines theatre techniques, improvisational scene work, role playing, large and small group interactions, educational games, and communication exercises to examine issues critical to young people, such as alcohol and substance use, bullying, delinquency, teen pregnancy, self-esteem, and HIV/AIDS.
