Event information

An evening of fully improvised comedy EVERY Wednesday at 33 Oldham Street with award-winning house teams and special guests! THIS WEEK:

SKUNKHAUS

Join us for an unforgettable hour of laughter and creativity as we Improvise a full story based on your life! In this unique improv show, we invite an audience member to share something they’re excited about or dreading and Skunkhaus will weave together a tale, featuring puns and chaos ending in a coherent story that’s as likely to come true as your last tea leaf reading . Will it be a rom-com, horror, sci-fi or western? Come watch our talented ensemble transform those ideas into a live story right before your eyes!

THE TOTALLY IMPROVISED PANTOMIME

Bored of the same pantomimes every year? The award-winning Totally Improvised Company present The Totally Improvised Pantomime! Heroes, villains, songs and silliness are guaranteed as the gang create brand-new pantomime adventures using audience suggestions and a sprinkling of fairy dust. Oh yes they do!

This version of the hit show is strictly adults only, stuffed with more innuendoes than you can stick down a panto dame's knickers. The cast lovingly remix familiar pantomime tropes and characters to create a show where anything can happen. The performers don’t know their roles beforehand, and audiences might even get involved in the action! The story and songs are all composed on the spot with live music, games and plenty of festive fun for all.
