The Great Big Send-Off

This Wednesday is the last evening of London Improv at The Miller before we break up for the much awaited Edinburgh Fringe Festival (eek!). We want to go out on a big bang of fun, so that those who aren't getting to go to Edinburgh this year can have a last blast before the comedy circuit practically clears out. And for those who are going to Edinburgh, a chance to meet others that they might like to spend time with up North.

So, on Wednesday 27th July, London Improv will be hosting THE GREAT BIG SEND-OFF! [applause]

Now, the plan is simple: get as many improvisers on stage as possible over the course of the night. We will be running it as a short form, games-based show, but out of all the improvisers that come we will pick randomly for each game. There's a chance there could be something in the region of a million performers in a two-hour show.. which if we wanted to investigate; would probably be some sort of record. Actually, come to think of it, I might try and find Norris McWurter's phone number.

Anyway, if you wanna be in it, it's as simple as this short and informative work-flow procedure:

ARRIVE - GIVE ME YOUR NAME - SAY YOU WANT TO IMPROVISE TONIGHT - BE IN THE SHOW


There is no limit on ability: if you've been doing impro for as long as Alan Marriott, or you've done one workshop, or you just smelled an improv show once - YOU ARE WELCOME!
If you are an improv-musician, even better, bring your instrument along and we'll fit it right in.

It's a party (of sorts) so if you're performing, if you've given me your name, you get in free. Can't say fairer than that. Actually, I might change the workflow procedure (that's the thing with business-speak, meaningless):

ARRIVE - GIVE ME YOUR NAME - SAY YOU WANT TO IMPROVISE TONIGHT - GET IN FREE - BE IN THE SHOW


Awesome. Can't wait to see you on stage, you are wonderful.

Wednesday 27th July
Time: Doors 7:30pm, Show 8pm - 10pm with interval.
Cost: £5 on the door (unless you're in the show)
Where: The Miller, 96 Snowsfields Road, London Bridge, London, SE1 3SS.
