Wednesday Night Improv: Triple Bill at The Hen & Chicken
See event details

A event held at The Hen & Chicken on Wednesday 13th August. The event starts at 19:30.


Wednesday Night Improv is back with a triple bill packed with quick wit, bold characters, and stories made up on the spot.

Join us for a midweek comedy boost featuring three of Bristol's sharpest improv acts - each one creating a brand-new show right before your eyes, all inspired by audience suggestions.

[1] BEANSVILLE: THE IMPROVISED WORKPLACE PILOT
Beansville presents: The Workplace. It’s another day at the office... the shop... the factory... or maybe even that weird place you once worked. You know the one. With all of the romances, rivalries, politics and performance issues you’d expect, all made up on the spot in this improvised workplace comedy.

Watch the pilot episode of a wholly improvised workplace comedy based on your suggestions.

[2] THE GRUMPKINS: THE ANYTHING-GOES TWO-PERSON IMPROV SHOW
Emma T and Pete Leaman make up the two-person myth that is The Grumpkins. They will create a brand new self-contained story from nothing but their imaginations and sheer determination.

This anything-goes show may feature adventure, romance, aliens, demons, drama, intrigue or a gritty limited series about a mismatched pair of detectives. All we know for sure is it will feature The Grumpkins.


[3] PRESSURE COOKER: THE IMPROVISED RESTAURANT SHOW
Pressure Cooker whisks you into the chaos of a fictional restaurant where chefs, customers, and kitchen staff are all played by a dynamic ensemble. Using YOUR stories as ingredients, our performers cook up hilarious, unpredictable scenes every night. From meltdowns to menu mayhem, it’s comedy served hot and fast.
