About this event

Arts • Comedy

Let's explore using Improv to laugh and create (sometimes very short!) stories together.

The theme will be "it's easier to like each other": let's have the characters get along rather than trying to invent conflict.

Most importantly, we will discover fun approaches to making each other laugh! Even if you've never told a joke or stepped onto a stage. We welcome all levels from beginners to seasoned improvisers, and help you discover fun and playful games. We can (almost) guarantee that everyone will have a lot of fun!

Tickets are £10 or Pay What You Can - click the ticket button!

What is Improv? It's a set of skills that anyone can learn for creating in a supportive, collaborative fashion - no one person has to do all the work: nor should they!

You'll be amazed at how easily you'll build worlds together and make new friends.

Things to remember:

  • You can do this - most of your daily life is unscripted!
  • The whole drop-in is one team - no heckling - only support
  • You don't have to ever do this in public
  • You can ALWAYS opt out of any scene or activity or topic - we've got your back.
