Katy Schutte's improv gubbins, July 2017.
Previews & Scott Adsit!
June has been an incredible improv journey. This month is all about the Edinburgh previews, baby! And playing with Scott Adsit on Friday; that's pretty exciting too.
International Improv
It's been a real treat to travel around performing and teaching improv in June. Hello if I met you in Finland, Greece or Ireland over the last month! For international followers, my improv blogs are HERE. You can also listen to episodes of the improvised podcast Destination which is very silly and has a fantastic cast.
Schutte the Unromantic
This is my new storytelling stand-up show about how awful I am at romance.
Previews
TOMORROW 30th June @ The Nursery Theatre, London (6pm start) This one's right before The Maydays show with Scott from 30 Rock, so come along early!
26th July @ Hoopla Improv Theatre, The Miller, London

London Shows:
The Maydays
Come see The Maydays and Scott Adsit share the stage on Friday 30th June. Of course... you'll be there anyway to see my preview at 6pm, so just stick around.
We'll also be performing our smash-hit festival show Happily Never After at the Nursery Theatre on 21st July.
Destination Live
Our improvised podcast will be performing live at Hoopla on
with guest Tim Sniffen as well as regular cast Tony Harris, Jinni Lyons, Rhiannon Vivian and me. Destination is a real-time car journey where our driver is plagued with phone calls in an - often distressing and surreal - 30 minute journey.
Project2
Chris Mead and I will be performing science fiction improv for your delight at the Nursery Theatre on 14th July.
Improv Classes:
Slow Burn Masterclass
SOLD OUT (but let me know if you want to go on the waiting list just in case).I'm teaching a specialist class after much haranguing from students! This will be a high level class, so I recommend at least a year of longform shows in your pocket. Tuesdays 4th, 11th, 18th & 25th July, 7-10pm at the Nursery Training Centre, London Bridge.More details & booking here.
Drop-ins and courses

Maydays Improv Retreat
How would you like to spend five days staying in a grand old house in the Dorset countryside, taking your choice of improv classes in the company of some of the most lovely and talented people you’ll ever meet? Whether you’re new to improv, a seasoned veteran, or somewhere in between, you’ll come away from this residential week refreshed, energised and inspired.
Other Gubbins:
I've written a book, a ruddy improv book. It's a 12-week workbook for longformers called The Improviser's Way and it will be out later this year...
Destination Podcast
Our improvised car journey continues with new episodes every Sunday.
Enjoy our guests and regulars including Trilochon Chatterjee, Brendan Murphy, Maria Peters, Jonathan Monkhouse, Rhiannon Vivian, Jinni Lyons, Tony Harris and me.
