Wednesday Night Improv kicks off 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. ** JAZZ POLICE: THE IMPROVISED SKETCH SHOW ** American-style longform improv comedy troupe from Bristol. Having performed at the Edinburgh International Improv Festival and the Birmingham Comedy Festival, explore the world of improv through a hilarious compilation of scenes and bits as these masters of wit take one word and turn it into a show. "Damn near perfect improv" – The Glasgow Improv Theatre ** 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. ** AFTER DUSK: THE IMPROVISED TWILIGHT ZONE ** You walk into a play, but none of the actors have learned their lines, because there are none. This show hasn’t been written yet. A nightmare or a dream? Who’s to say? Up ahead, there’s a sign. We take a turn through your imagination and arrive at your final destination: An improvised twist on The Twilight Zone! Accompanied by a live violinist, some of Bristol’s best improvisers create a brand-new episode of the classic science fiction show which inspired Black Mirror. Suitable for all levels of nerdiness and Twilight Zone knowledge, including none! ★★★★★ “A beautiful demonstration of everything improvised performance can be.” – The Reviews Hub --- Whether you're a seasoned comedy fan or just curious about what happens when performers make it all up as they go, this is a perfect night to dive into Bristol's thriving improv scene. Expect laughter, surprises, and something completely different—every single time. --- Part of the Wednesday Night Improv series – also look out for The Bish Bosh Bash, our improvised gameshow spectacular, on 11th June! https://hdfst.uk/e128012
