Get ready for a takeover!
Bristol Longform Comedy will be taking charge of the Bristol Improv Theatre to show you the wide range of wonderful improv troupes Bristol has to offer.
Bristol Longform Comedy (BLC) is a community-oriented group who shines a light on American-Style Longform Improv. American Longform is a continuous improvised piece inspired by an audience suggestion, structured like sketch comedy, rather than a play.
Their takeover will show you the wide range of wonderful improv Bristol has to offer. There will be two established groups, The Groundhogs and Last Day On Earth, and the Takeover Team: a community troupe created just for the night.
Come along for an evening jam-packed with entertainment and comedy!
The Groundhogs
Making waves on the Bristol comedy circuit, these mischief-makers are off to the Big City with their own brand of improvised deja-vu. First they’ll improvise a comedy sketch for you. Then they’ll repeat it. Then they’ll repeat it again. Maybe they’ll even do it AGAIN after that. But will the sketch be exactly the same each time…? (Spoiler: It will not)
Last Day On Earth
The first graduate house team of legendary improv night Parent’s Basement take a location from the audience and proceed to take us on a journey through improvised sketch and character comedy.
Featuring performers from: This Is Your Musical, Up The Antics & After Dusk: The Improvised Twilight Zone, Last Day on Earth have travelled all over the country with their chaotic, hilarious comedic style and consistently deliver premium laughter.
