Unbridled comedy satisfaction: This week at The London Improv Comedy Club

Loretta Maine. Wednesday, 8pm  
Just how much improv do you want this week?


If the answer is "an infinite amount" then you're in luck. From now until the end of the week you can see high quality improv every night at the London Festival Of Improvisation. Six nights of awesome shows... or 'infinite'.


At The Miller we are hugely excited to have Loretta Maine (AKA Pippa Evans), one of the most exciting characters on the comedy circuit. She'll be supported by the fabulous 'Your Girlfriend', awesome lady-improv. Nowhere other than The Miller could give you such talent for only a fiver.


Then for all you other impro-fixes, there's the Slapdash Fest at The Nursery. Come along, see some international stars of improv all get together and make magic treats.


And as a little extra thrill, the awesome Texan group: Parallelogramophonograph will be performing at The Miller next week.


Woah.


WEDNESDAY 6TH JUNE
LORETTA MAINE
with YOUR GIRLFRIEND
This is either the darkest raunchy movie in history, or an evening of comedy from some of the funniest women in London.

"Psycho-intense singer-songwriter Loretta Maine makes Courtney Love look well-balanced." - Chortle

Loretta left school at the age of 15, and it was at this tender age that she found music to be a good outlet for her frustrations and began writing songs such as “Makin’ Love” and “C*** S***ing M*ther F***er”.

The darkest mind in Country music. Award-winning character comedy from Pippa Evans (Showstoppers, Fast & Loose).

Loretta will be supported by Your Girlfriend. Ultra talented uber-girls with a thirst for mirth and a sassy att.
The likes of Charlotte Gittins, Kelly Finnerty, Briony Redman and (freshly back in the UK) Monica Heisey perform just for you. They are all Your Girlfriend, you lucky devil.


WHEN: 8pm, Tuesday 29th May
COST: £5 on the door
