Impro Melbourne

Impro Melbourne Melbourne's premier improvised theatre company. Impro Melbourne is Melbourne’s most diverse improvisation theatre company.

Formed in 1996 it is now run by Artistic Director Katherine Weaver and General Manager Rik Brown and the Impro Melbourne Committee of Management. Since 1996 Impro Melbourne has produced all forms of improvised theatre from minute-long games and impromptu musicals to Shakespeare-on-the-spot and hour-long fully improvised plays. We currently produce the global impro format Theatresports™, as well as Keith Johnstone's two other competition formats Maestro™ and Gorilla Theatre™. In 2004 we developed a schools program which has now become a highly acclaimed series of demonstration shows and workshops for primary and secondary students, which is managed by Regional Arts Victoria. Impro Melbourne’s reputation continues to grow as we travel across Australia and overseas. The company has performed and taught in Asia, Europe, South Africa, South America and North America. We continue to share our innovative techniques with the impro world and will never stop searching the globe for inspiration. Our vision is 'A world where every person is inspired by Improvisation"

Impro Melbourne is thrilled to have Rick Andrews in the theatre with us on the 23rd of August, all the way from USA’s Magnet Theater in New York! Enrolments for Rick’s class are open now for experienced Improvisors, see the workshop listing for the relevant pre-requisites!
About the class: We know it’s great to agree. We agree on the facts of the scene, the reality of what we’re building.

But can we also agree on how we’re approaching this scene? What cues can I take from my partner as to not just what’s happening, but how it’s happening? Why is this particular fun we’re having fun? What kind of a scene am I being invited into?

In this class, we will stretch our stylistic muscles to become extremely well rounded improvisers, ready to tackle whatever scene comes our way, however it comes our way
