Join us for a night of spontaneous laughter at The Improv Spotlight.
Immerse yourself in the world of unscripted comedy as two talented groups from our vibrant community take centre stage. These groups will weave unique stories, characters, and humour on the spot for your entertainment. The Spotlight highlights the spontaneous comedy of improvised theatre and proudly showcases the diverse skills of local troupes and artists within our community.
Doors at 7pm. Show starts at 7.30pm.
Tickets are Pay What You Can with a minimum of £8.
This month under the Spotlight we have the acts ‘Pressure Cooker’ and ‘Tales From The Wasteland’.
*Pressure Cooker*
Pressure Cooker – the improvised restaurant show (from the cast of The Bish Bosh Bash and the creators of Tales of Adventure).
Step into our restaurant, where the experience is different every night! Our performers take ingredients from the audience’s suggestions to create recipes for funny, silly, and relatable stories.
You’ll see how the front-of-house, back-of-house, and customers deal with wildly unpredictable situations and character tales, serving up all-you-can-eat laughs.
As our Head Chef always says… “You can’t make an omelette without cracking a few laughs”.
*Tales From The Wasteland*
Tales From The Wasteland is an improvised post-apocalyptic adventure comedy. This twisted and talented cast of wastelanders will take a single suggestion from you and craft an entire narrative show with no pre-prepared characters, story or dialogue.
If the world was ending, what would be the one thing you’d want to survive? Join us as we explore a new world and find out what’s left over after Earth’s devastation. Expect raiders, mutants and violence over scarce resources in this absurd dark comedy inspired by classics of the genre such as Mad Max, The Last of Us and Fallout.
Warning: this show tends to have dark themes, violence and cannibalism. Seriously, cannibalism comes up way too often.
Entry requirements: no age restrictions
