Katy Schutte's improv gubbins, February 2016.
February. Awesome, more like!
After a sell-out show at Geekeasy's Wild West themed night, we are back with a wistful indie film theme in February. Destination Live - the improvised podcast - is back at Giggleloop, I throw my keys in the bowl and swap two-person improv partners at the Nursery, improvisers and actors come together in the Actor's Nightmare at the Nursery and Project2 play Shoreditch Improv Festival. All improv, all of the time (I love it).
London Shows:
Project2 presents: Geekeasy
On 19th February we look at the Independent Film; what's so awesome about them and what makes us geek out so much? Did you know that Terminator was an indie film? Sure was. With sketch comedy, award-winning musical comedy from Jollyboat (our house band), Presentation Wars, Project2 improvised science fiction and talks about indie films from their fans and makers. Tickets
Project2 presents: Holodeck!
We have created a night for improvisers to come and play in the Holodeck. We welcome ready-made teams as well as individuals. It doesn't matter whether you're new to improv or you've been doing it for years; everyone is equal in the Holodeck. We direct short form games, host long form sets and give you a sci-fi show too. Wednesday 17th February at the Miller London Bridge £free.
