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

A event held at The Hen & Chicken on Wednesday 8th April. The event starts at 19:30.


Wednesday Night Improv’s monthly show continues 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] GREENWOOD LANE From train stations to tile warehouses, leisure centres to high rises, with just the suggestion of a place from the audience, Jack and Vicky conjure an entire world of workers & shirkers, artists & buskers, mothers & brothers, and more. Jack Greenwood has been practising improv for 8 years. He founded the Bournemouth University Improv Society in 2017; is the Director of Bristol Longform Comedy; has taken two improv shows to the Edinburgh Fringe; has travelled all over the UK with The Groundhogs; and currently performs with Blame of Thrones in Bristol. Vicky Lane completed her improv training at the Comedy Cafe Berlin, where she performed with Gummy Worms, Northern Soul and a host of indie teams. After completing her acting training at the Catalyst Institute Berlin, she has returned to the UK and is making her mark on the Bristol arts scene. She currently runs and hosts Lip Service Comedy, Queer Stories spoken word night, and is establishing her own theatre company in the city. [2] TALES FROM THE WASTELAND Shelter from the nuclear winter inside the safety of our bunker and listen to tales from storytellers from across the wasteland! These tales may feature raiders, mutants, adventure - and of course will be entirely made up on the spot, fuelled by your suggestions! This absurd dark comedy is inspired by shows such as Fallout and Mad Max. [3] MUSES An all-star long-form team from some of Bristol’s best improvisers bring you a night of fun, fancy and frolic. Improvisers from This Is Your Musical, Up The Antics, BirdWatchers, Degrees of Error and Jazz Police will craft hilarious scenes and sketches from your suggestions. F-rated!* * This is a female-led and directed production. --- 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 – We’re on the second Wednesday of every month!
