Lisbon

The capital city of Germany, Berlin is a city that used to be split in two. There is certainly an understanding of the need to bring people together.

Porto

With an amazing history and a love for fun, it is good to have a variety of fun options to help workers to feel appreciated by their companies.

The Algarve

An international city, Frankfurt has major corporations operating here and people relocating here from all around the world. We can help these people to feel more as one team.

The Azores

An exceptional city, Hamburg leads the way for commercial enterprise. We can help companies to think outside the box and find new ways to enhance their bottom line.

For companies, this can take the form of employee appreciation, meetings and incentives awards, client appreciation or executive retreats and just about anything else you can think of. Sometimes strictly for entertainment and sometimes for team building, each gathering is focused on what your goals are. After all, it's not for what we need, but for what THEY need.

We help corporate holiday parties be more entertaining while possibly achieving other team building goals!

Portugal is a great place for American businesses to operate. Though language can be an issue, and with a different outlook on the world, the commonalities between Americans and the Portuguese still far outweigh the differences. This makes working together rather natural, though still with some difficulties. Having a company such as our own that can come in and employees to work together to tower above the rest is key to success. THEY improv uses a variety of techniques to remove the barriers between people and get employees working together towards common goals.

Lisbon is the Focus for Many Corporate Events

Lisbon is the focus of such possibilities and is the City of Seven Hills. There is plenty to see and do and has many multi-national companies centered here. In fact, almost half of the GDP of the country comes from the work in and around the city. While Porto has a large population, more industrial strength comes from Lisbon. We work on helping people to have a good time and get to know each other better as people as opposed to simply knowing fellow employees by job titles. There is no shortage of amazing options for enhancing employees.

Let us come to you and help your group in Lisbon.

Murder Mysteries

For private parties, banquets and corporate events, our cast of detectives, mysterious suspects and plots are customized to our clients at venues of their choosing for luncheons or dinner shows. We will have your group trying to discover whodunit while laughing the night away. We have smaller versions where the participants play the characters in a no-pressure environment.

Game Shows

Game shows invite your group to participate more directly through actually coming up on stage and being put through TV Show-styled game shows to compete for not very expensive prizes (we wouldn't want anyone unhappy that they didn't win). With a wide selection like our version of the Family Feud, the Match Game, Minute to Win It or the Newlywed Game, there is something to take care of your group.

Improv Comedy Shows

Improvisational comedy is a great way to have an ensemble entertain your group in a relaxed atmosphere. This can be done very presentational or more intimate if you prefer. The nature of this show is lightning in a bottle. There are moments that can never be repeated because everything is made up in the moment. The audience shares the creative process and can be active participants in the fun.

Talk Shows

We can put the focus on management or on certain hot button issues that you would like to address through the use of a talk show. Great for state of the company presentations, we can help American companies spread the main corporate values to international audiences. This can all be done with more of a comedic bent or higher production values to enhance the impact.

Team Building Workshops

Getting employees to work together while potentially training for specific skill sets is what we do. Whether it is training for leadership or presentation skills, sales training, emotional intelligence or simple communication, we have programs for you. Because we utilize American techniques, this makes our workshops stand out from our competition.

Activities

From Scavenger Hunts to Mini-Olympiads or other group activities, we have a selection of programs that can get people working together in unique ways. Our Scavenger Hunts can help you to get your group to know the area and be exposed to the local people while enhancing bonding. Simply contact us to find out how we can help your team to get to the next level.

We also provide hospitality training. Tourism is a major driver of commerce. This means that there is a need for hospitality training and we have programs that can assist in dealing with American visitors in ways that only an American consulting company could understand. Contact us to see how we can help your venue better serve the needs of your American guests.

FAQs

Why Portugal?

There are three basic types of Portuguese events.

First, there are the events where American companies want to meet with their local counterparts. This involves bonding and getting to know one another.

Second, there are the events with more of an international flavor. These involve people from several countries getting together. These tend to be in the more cosmopolitan areas such as Lisbon and Porto.

Third, there are the events with teams of Americans celebrating a success. These incentives awards events often include activities that get away from the every day.

While the language of Portugal is Portuguese, of course, the reality is that there are meetings conducted in English. We serve those meetings and help to bond Portuguese employees with multi-national companies based in England or the U.S.

What Can Influence Your Choices?

Our programs run the full gamut of whatever services you may desire and can be based on any desired results. This means that you should consider factors that can influence the style of performance.

First, you should choose if you want a daytime activity or if you would prefer something around a meal.

Second, where might this take place? We can do things outside, such as a scavenger hunt or Mini-Olympiad, or we can have more of a dinner event. The relative safety of a hotel can be a primary choice or you could desire more of an urban backdrop.

Third, you should let us know your goals. Is it team building, skills development, entertainment, or anything else?

Fourth, how long do you want the event to last?

Fifth, are there language or cultural considerations? We can adapt to most things though we usually operate in English. Even for people from a specific country, English is often the great equalizer as dialects can cause issues. Each country has their own dialects and words that don't cross the borders. Knowing these differences is helpful.

Lastly, if you know your budget, it can help guide the process and limit options to what would be more acceptable. This goes in both directions as knowing there is a larger budget can open options that we might not otherwise make you aware of.

With that information we can usually generate some approaches to help you achieve your goals.

What Can Influence the Cost?

Some of the more remote locations may also require accommodations for the performers. There are additional costs for incidental expenses such as parking, etc., but tends to not be too significant. Of course, the choice of venue may influence the cost as some restaurants are much more expensive than others.

You should consider parking costs, transportation for your team if off site, food costs and accommodations. Of course, bringing us to you is often less expensive than bringing you to us.

Portugal private parties for families or corporate events are improved through all of these programs. And for a country as interesting and diverse as the people are, THEY improv is ready to provide for all. After all, being improvisers, THEY can adjust to practically anything.

THEY improv is proud to serve all of Portugal including Lisbon, Lagos, The Algarve, Sintra, Cascais, Coimbra, The Azores, as well anywhere else you can think of, though some of the more remote areas would likely result in added costs.

Large numbers of British come to Portugal for retirement or for vacations. Besides Lisbon, many go to Lagos, the Algarve, Sintra, Cascais and Coimbra. The areas of the Algarve are particularly popular with Expats and there are large communities of largely English speaking services. The Mediterranean climate along with the comfort and security of being able to group with fellow countrymen has made the area particularly popular. This is true in Faro, along the southern coast of Portugal and everywhere in-between. Having entertainment for private parties in these communities in English can help everyone get a bit of home while on the road. Simply ask us how we can help enhance any gathering.
