Shadowbox Live Partners with Franklin U.

Shadowbox Live is proud to announce a new collaboration with Franklin University.

Franklin University is planning on using Shadowbox Live's Theater of Business, formally titled Shadowbiz, to compliment programs offered by its Center for Professional Training & Development.

Theater of Business helps improve business skills, such as communication, using customized sketch comedy and group activities in a unique and fun setting.

"Many of the skills we use as actors on stage are the exact same skills used in the work place," says Stev Guyer, Executive Producer and CEO of Shadowbox Live. "We've had great success using our craft to teach these skills in an unexpected way."

The relationship with Franklin University is the latest in a string of recent collaborations for Shadowbox Live, but marks the first partnership specifically with Theater of Business.

"We're very excited about this opportunity," says Guyer. "Franklin University brings with it a very positive reputation. I believe this association could open up many avenues for us and be mutually beneficial."
