In Slovenia the genre was first adopted by the Ana Monró Theatre in their show Variete; subsequently in 1994 they founded Impro Liga that eventually developed into the more complex Improvisation Society of Slovenia.
The Society now runs three complementary projects - Impro liga ('Improvisation League'), a short-form improvisation competition; Šila ('High School Improvisation League') which is intended for Slovene high school students to learn the rules and techniques in three- to four-minute improvisation games through training with the help of the Society mentors; and Impro klub, established in 1999 to introduce long-form improvisation.
The Society also organises the Naked Stage International Improvisational Theatre Festival, an international festival of improvised theatre organised at KUD France Prešeren since 2002.
The core of the Society comprises about 30 improvisers, who produce excellent shows. They have learned improvisation skills from acknowledged mentors, including Katie Walsh and Peter Moore (both from the London improvisation community), Roland Trescher and Andreas Wolf (Fast Food Theatre in Munich), Dan Goldstein (Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre in New York), Randy Dixon (Unexpected Productions in Seattle) and Noah Gregoropolous (ImprovOlympic in Chicago).
