A Dark Impro Festival Event | Presented by Protea Impro

Join us for an evening of Improvised Theatre : 3 x Shows!

Our Place | Presented by PROTEA Impro 
Our Place is a narrative format which explores the concept of place through the creation of such a town. Using scene painting and suggestions from the audience a map of the Place is created. We then see characters from this town tell their stories and gradually over the duration of the show, these stories build a sense of the personality of this newly minted town, and what it means to the people that live there. Links appear between sometimes disparate scenes and characters as we slowly build the theatrical equivalent of a watercolour painting of a town and its people.

The Last Day | Presented by Matt Armstrong & Michael Fletcher
The show The Last Day is a very dynamic long form show based on the premise of audience suggestions on “the last day of…” and we work with the audience to provide suggestions that range from grounded (“”capitalism””) to esoteric (“”silence””). Scenes can be short or long, with a different characters and styles based on the suggestion.  The Last Day show format deliberately encourages the audience to reveal what is top of mind at the start of each scene, and the performers often encourage more deeper exploration with the audience through the scene itself.

The Lighthouse | Presented by PROTEA Impro
Usually the lighthouse is manned by one keeper at a time. This year however, the changeover hasn’t gone to plan. And two lighthouse keepers are stuck with each other for the season.
The Lighthouse is a bonus show and is free for any ticket holder that night!
