Rice Cookie Community
Rice Cookie Values
Inclusivity
Inclusiveness is at the heart of the RC community. We strive to ensure that everyone, regardless of their background, identity or improv experience, feels welcome and valued. We achieve this by embracing the differences and making sure members have equal opportunities to thrive, participate and contribute.
Fairness
At the RC community, we strive to ensure that everyone is treated with equality and without prejudices. We accomplish this by making the processes and rules as transparent and just as possible, focusing on participants getting fair opportunities to participate, grow and succeed in their improv journeys.
Respect
Respect is fundamental in all interactions in the RC community. Respect for RC means recognizing, and valuing people's contributions, perspectives, feelings and personal space.
We have clear definitions and guidelines for respecting personal boundaries and ensuring an environment that is safe and supportive
Non-judgement
At Rice Cookies, we aim to create a space where people can be themselves without the fear of judgement or biases. The central aspect of a non-judgmental environment is that it promotes an environment of trust and openness. For example, in improv stage scenes we encourage playfulness detached from the outcome.
