SUMMARY:Improv Drop-ins
DESCRIPTION:Mondays | 19:30 – 21:30\nLooking to stretch your improvising muscles? Then our drop-ins are for you! \nOur drop-ins run every Monday evening and alternate between scene workshops and classes focused on specific skills to help you pad out your improvisers tool-kit. \nDuring our scene workshops\, you’ll receive supportive and constructive side-coaching\, tailored to the group and designed to develop your confidence and improvisation skills. On the other hand\, the regular drop-ins will take a specific skill and explore it through games\, exercises and scenes. \nFacilitated by an experienced Bristol Improv Theatre instructor\, drop-ins are a great chance to try improv at Bristol Improv Theatre and connect with others. \nAny questions\, please don’t hesitate to get in touch at hello@improvtheatre.net. \nIf you are brand new to improv\, you may prefer to try the monthly Improv Taster Session. \nUpdate on Pricing \nFrom 8th May 2023\, we’re reducing the price of our drop-ins in order to make them more accessible during the cost of living crisis. We don’t want money to be a barrier to access so no-one will be turned away due to lack of funds. If you cannot attend an event due to financial barriers\, please feel free to turn up to attend the session or you can reserve a space by emailing us at hello@improvtheatre.net. Please note\, drop-in spaces are limited so we’d recommend reserving a space in advance.  \n(Please note that the new pricing cannot be applied retrospectively to tickets already purchased). \n\n\n

SUMMARY:The Bish Bosh Bash: Christmas Special
DESCRIPTION:Friday 1st December | 20:00\nThe Bish Bosh Bash: The Improvised Game Show is back for a very special Christmas edition\, bringing songs\, scenes and silliness. \nThe Bish Bosh Bash is a great introduction for those who’ve never seen improv before. An easy going and mischievous evening awaits. \nIt’s a game of two halves! \nIn the first half\, our teams will go head-to-head playing quick-fire games\, which those familiar with ‘Whose Line Is It Anyway?’ might recognise.  \nThe second half is our knockout round\, where our players are both the writers and actors of mini plays inspired by your suggestions. \nThey’re battling it out for you\, playing for your votes and adoration. You decide who makes it to the end\, and ultimately which team goes home with the glory! \n“A good value evening’s entertainment and plenty of playfulness. Five stars!” \n★★★★★ Bristol 24/7 \nAn update on our ticket prices\nWe understand that right now\, times are tough for a lot of people. It’s important to us that everyone who wants to attend our shows is able to do so as easily as possible and is welcomed with open arms. Therefore\, we’ve introduced a new open concession ticket price capped at £10 for all of our Christmas shows and beyond. If you’d like to come to a show but the standard ticket price is a bit of a stretch\, please feel free to book a concession ticket\, no questions asked. We can’t wait to welcome you to the Bristol Improv Theatre!
