Five Star Gift Ideas

For your boyfriend who enjoys taking improv classes and performing on stage, you'll want to choose a Valentine's Day gift that not only celebrates his passion but also adds value to his craft. Here are a few meaningful and personal gift ideas to consider:

1. Improv Workshop or Class: Surprise your boyfriend with an improv workshop or class from a renowned improv theater or school. It will not only enhance his skills but also provide an opportunity for him to meet new improvisers and learn from experienced instructors.

2. Improv Books: Expand his knowledge and creativity by gifting him some well-regarded improv books. Titles like "Impro" by Keith Johnstone, "Truth in Comedy" by Del Close and Charna Halpern, or "The Upright Citizens Brigade Comedy Improvisation Manual" can offer insights, techniques, and inspiration to further fuel his passion.

3. Performance Opportunity: Arrange for him to have a stage time at an open mic night, improv jam, or even a small performance venue where he can showcase his talent. This can be a thoughtful and encouraging gesture, and it allows him to share his craft with others.

4. Improv Comedy Show Tickets: Treat yourselves to a night filled with laughter and entertainment by gifting him tickets to a professional improv comedy show. Make it a fun date night experience where you can both enjoy the spontaneity and humor performed by seasoned improvisers.

5. Improv Podcast Subscriptions: If your boyfriend enjoys listening to podcasts, consider gifting him a subscription to popular improv podcasts such as "Improv Nerd with Jimmy Carrane" or "The Improv Comedy Connection." These podcasts often feature interviews with renowned improvisers and provide insights into the art of improvisation.

6. Comedy Club Membership: If there's a local comedy club or improv theater that he frequents, consider surprising him with an annual membership or a season pass. This gift will not only support his passion for improv but also give him access to exclusive benefits like discounted tickets, workshops, and special events.

7. Improv-inspired Apparel or Accessories: Help him showcase his love for improv with clothing or accessories that incorporate improvisation-themed designs or quotes. Consider customizable items like t-shirts, mugs, or phone cases that express his unique style and serve as a reminder of his improv journey.

Remember to choose a gift that aligns with his personal preferences and interests. By selecting something that celebrates his love for improv, you are not only demonstrating your support but also showing that you understand and appreciate his passion.

Or you can get him a star map with the date of your first kiss.
