I would do it. I never got the chance to lead a workshop at improvgarage....
  I would do one on alternative forms and methods of composition/improvisation.

if past instances of salonery have proven futile in the past, we could
always book it as like a 6 week "information summit" or something -
offer 2 classes a week (morning/afternoon or something, lunch in the
middle), really plan it out to iron out any lacksadaysical
whathaveyous out of the system and throw something together that's
like beyond par. then let it simmer a bit and when the time seems
right, offer another string of classes/sessions, etc, - hopefully
building on the acclaim of the first round. if those go well, we plan
another string, if not, hey, we can all sit around and reminisce about
the first two sessions or something.

so, uh, show of hands - would anyone be interested in teaching
anything? would anyone be interested in hosting? cooking? making
sarcastic comments regarding some grammatical blunder tweezed from
this post? all hands on deck.

...cricket says chirp.
