Friday 31st January | 20:00 (Doors open 19:30pm) Created by Max Dickens and Conor Jatter, the ground-breaking fusion of improv comedy and live jazz comes to the BIT after sell-out…

The RH Experience are returning to the Bristol Improv Theatre. A 5* improvised comedy sketch group, who have been performing live shows & producing sketches for over a decade, and between them have performed at Glastonbury and Latitude Festivals, Edinburgh & Brighton Fringes, and have featured on BBC One, BBC Radio 4 & E4.

Feeling the Valentine's Day blues? Need an alternative to the commercialisation of romance? Let London favourites The Bareback Kings bring more lurve into your life with their drag king swagger, tackling the issues of the hour in this improvised comedy show. The boyz are rude, crude but never disrespecting the ladies. Even when they’re whipping their kecks off.

Remember childhood-favourite Guess Who? It's that, but based on vibes and played with you, the lovely audience. Failure is certain. A good time not absolutely guaranteed but quite likely. It's a very silly party show, I think you'll have fun with it. James Ross is the brains behind long-running, leftie, no-punching-down, cult-favourite London comedy night Quantum Leopard.

DNAYS return to Bristol for 2025 – Improvised comedy sketches and scenes inspired by TED-style talks from guest speakers. Previous guest speakers include a professional extreme snowboarder, a Greenpeace activist, the scientist who cloned Dolly the sheep, a Game of Thrones superfan and a piracy expert.

Grab your glitter and strut on down to Clifton, Dragprov is back in Brizzle! ‘Christian Adore’ and ‘Eaton Messe’ are a drag double act performed by Francesca Forristal and Ed Scrivens. Using your suggestions, this lovable soft-boy and sassy queen will create dazzling songs, sketches, raps, and entire musical right before your eyes! It’s RuPaul’s glamour meets corset-splitting improv hilarity. With smash hit shows from the Edinburgh Fringe to Glastonbury Festival, the dazzling duo returns to the Bristol Improv Theatre for a Pride extravaganza.

Following its sell-out Soho Theatre run, the cult hit comes to Bristol. Together with his audience, veteran improviser Elms 'builds a comedy mind palace before your very eyes. You'll want to move in for good' (Phil Wang).
