September is nearly upon us, which can only mean one thing: another month of amazing improv events! (And you need to stock up on scented gel pens!)
Put your thinking caps on – it’s time to get schooled on some highlights from our September programme.
Spoiled for choice? No problem! Take our quiz to help you choose which show you should come to, based on your favourite piece of back-to-school stationery.

Water bottle: The Noise Next Door – Freewheeling
If you’ve got a thirst for some as-seen-on-TV ‘comedy gold’ ( the Guardian), then come and take a sip of ‘Freewheeling’! A new show from the Noise Next Door, based on your weirdest and wildest ideas. Tickets are selling fast for this one, so don’t hang around!
Notebook: Tales of Adventure
Are you ready for an epic fantasy adventure that hasn’t even been written yet?! Join our heroes in their exciting quest, improvised live before your very eyes. Inspired by a certain popular role playing game (which we can’t mention by name for copyright reasons).
Backpack: Make the Audience Care – with Maria Peters
Technically this one isn’t a show, but a brilliant improv course! It wouldn’t be a back-to-school quiz without some theatre school fun. Join Maria Peters to learn how to grab the audience, and compel them to pay attention. You’ll come away with enough improv tricks to fill a whole school bag!
Pen: The Awkward Guide to Friendship
Looking to make some friends, but feeling too awkward? Here’s a top tip: ask to borrow a pen, and then bring them along to the Awkward Guide to Friendship! House of Figs brings you their new work featuring improv, original songs and immersive soundscapes.
