Calling all improv-lovers!
Paper Street Theatre Improv Festival returns for its sixth year at the Intrepid Theatre next week.
Produced by the award-winning Paper Street Theatre, the festival features special guest directors Caity Curtis and Stephen Sim from Winnipeg’s The Improv Theatre and artistic director Dave Morris from Paper Street Theatre.
Each night, from Tuesday, April 21st to Saturday, April 25th, audience members can expect performances by a powerhouse ensemble of improvisers from across North America, directed by guest artists and bringing an exciting mix of creativity and live storytelling.
“What makes this festival unique is that we’re focused on the theatrical, the dramatic side of improvisation,” explains festival director Dave Morris.
“The directors we bring in, like Stephen Sim, coach our ensemble to explore the beautiful over the comedic, letting audiences experience stories that highlight the joy of improvisation.”
There will also be late night mash-up shows and public workshops with guest directors.
Paper Street Theatre is an award-winning company that has toured across Canada and Europe, delivering theatre-like improvisation that tackles genres and styles from Jane Austen to Quentin Tarantino.
