An evening of improvised theatre with Spontaneity Improv Company, featuring scenes and games made up on the spot.
Spontaneity Improv Co. are taking the stage at The Bus Stop Theatre Co-operative on Friday, November 27, for their November Showcase. It's a night of improvised theatre, which means nothing you see has been written down beforehand—every scene and every game is made up on the spot.
If you've never seen improv live, the whole point is that the performers are working without a script. They build characters, settings, and plots in real time, often pulling suggestions from the audience to get things moving. The showcase format usually brings together a few different games and scenes throughout the evening, so the pace shifts from one setup to the next rather than following a single story from start to finish. It's the kind of thing where the energy of the room plays a part, and no two shows ever end up the same.
The night is put on by Spontaneity Improv Co., a troupe that works in this unscripted style. The showcase is their main feature for the evening, with the company handling the scenes and games that make up the bill. It's a straightforward setup: a group of improvisers on stage, a few games to keep things moving, and everything coming out of thin air as they go.
