Our November Unscripted Players shows are fast approaching! ⏰

Two original productions, one big show! Presented, directed and performed by the Unscripted Players, the Bristol Improv Theatre’s amateur improv company.

Featuring:

Love Peninsula: The improvised dating show
by Charlie Hutchence
Winter might be round the corner but it’s about to get hot, hot, hot at the Bristol Improv Theatre as we transport you to Love Peninsula- the dating show where literally anything could happen.

Second Chances
by Petia Petrova
Ever had regrets? Are you still haunted by that one decision you took, or didn’t, one action you took, or didn’t? Well, this show will help you reimagine your regret and your future. We will laugh, we will cry, and we will leave the show loving our lives just that little bit more.

Get your tickets before it's too late! https://buff.ly/3Twfzz7

Tomorrow night is the Bi-Monthly Unscripted Space!

Have an improv format you’re wishing to trial out?
Haven’t played a particular improv game in a while? And itching to do so?
Got something entirely different to suggest?
Or just want to come along for the ride?

We also have a Q&A of an improv format which was tested at one of these previously! Which is also showing this Friday! Do you have a show brewing but no where to test it out? Bring it Wednesday! We'd love to play! Tickets are Pay What You Want!

Hello Unscripted Players members,
It's been a while! Hopefully this post finds you well and enjoying the summer and reopening in whatever way is right for you. As promised, we’re here to find out what you want from your UP memberships over the next year as we navigate the post-lockdown world and our theatre’s place within it.

Survey
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeQeO5-z44kmQ8HYvwbkyArDmPtTmXYWRmuOkIuBmStzXwfKA/viewform
For those of you who like forms, a form to fill in with your thoughts. If you don’t like forms, let’s talk! Please drop me a line at to book in a half hour phone or zoom call about what you would like to get from UP over the next year, and what purpose you think UP should serve as part of Bristol’s improvising community.
We’ll be collating your verbal and written responses and putting together a summary for everyone to take a look at. Once we’ve figured out what the offer will be, everyone’s memberships will resume!

All the best,
Caitlin & the Bristol Improv Theatre team

Thanks for taking this survey and giving us your perspective on the Unscripted Players membership. This survey should take about fifteen minutes to complete - there are some multiple choice questions and an opportunity to write longer personal feedback.
