Two formats of fearless, exciting and high-energy improvisation.
Join Impro Melbourne at The Space on Sundays in November for Double Feature, a night of theatre that showcases and celebrates the daring diversity of Impro Melbourne. Each night the show will kick off an Impro Melbourne Jam, where players leap up when inspired and claim the stage in the spirit of play, where anything goes. Following this The Antiques Rogue Show or If These Walls Could Talk take you on two very different improvised journeys, one to a place of stately manors, country fetes, and bargain hunting and the other offering comedy within the confines for four walls.
The Antiques Rogue Show (Directed by Patrick Duffy, created by Patrick Duffy and Greg Ellis)
Runs 15th and 29th November
Join the stately, genteel and comedic British antique experts of the Antique Rogue Show on an imaginative journey as they unfold the mystery and intrigue of audience members’ treasured heirlooms and selected pieces. Improvisation brings these objects to life in a format that promises speculative history, bogus valuations and guaranteed laughs. Bring your favourite antique, that special item from the op shop, or grab something special from your handbag for Impro Melbourne’s esteemed auctioneers to appraise.
If These Walls Could Talk (Directed by Amy Moule)
Runs 22nd November
One place, one room, one house. An improvised show set entirely in the confines of four walls. What will be unveiled by these physically confined but narratively free players? The audience acts as walls and watches the stories unfold as secrets are revealed and memories are created. Spanning three different time periods, let us see if human beings really are that different from generation to generation. This show promises intense theatre and unexpected outcomes.
Double Feature’s Creative Direction is by Impro Melbourne’s co-Artistic Director Katherine Weaver and the cast features the Impro Melbourne Ensemble plus very special guests. Tickets are now on sale!
