Drawing inspiration from real-life experiences, they craft spontaneous theatre scenes that are as genuine as they are entertaining. Expect nothing less than pure gold, with never-before-seen performances that'll leave you dazzled. There could be music, there could be poetry, or there could be a whole lot of silence. Join us for an unforgettable journey through the art of improv!
ImprompTwo has been called “unapologetically theatrical” at festivals around the world, and have become crowd favorites for their focus on deep relationships, organic humor, beautiful silences and staging. Both members of ImprompTwo bring years of experience in performing and producing theatre in New York and Canada, and take joy in merging those skills with the wonder of improv. Whether that’s the mystery of Passion Noir, the passion of American Gothic, or the banter of Unconsciously Coupled, they create one-of-a-kind theatrical experiences that are fleeting, intimate, and unforgettable.
With a helping hand from the audience, After Eight Tits creates scene in a rare universe full of absurdity and stories. On the stage you see Johanne Hofseth, Ingeborg Bjerkvik Alnes, Kristine Sterud and Elin Arntzen.
Scandinavia is famous for its cold winters, scenic landscapes and Nordic Noir literature – those mysterious crime stories where everybody is flawed. However, these dark tales don't need fjords and midnight sun to captivate audiences. Join us as we improvise a gripping Nordic Noir crime story set in your community: moody, mysterious, and full of unexpected laughs. Watch as your local landmarks become crime scenes, your neighbours turn into suspects, and chilling secrets get unravelled. One familiar location. One unexpected crime. One unforgettable evening of comedy and intrigue. Could your hometown be the next setting for a Nordic Noir thriller? There's only one way to find out. Warning: May cause increased suspicion of friendly neighbors and an irresistible urge to wear more turtlenecks.
Herring & Chopsticks is an Asian duo living in Scandinavia for over 10 years: Aree Witoelar (Indonesia/Norway) & Yuehan Liu (China/Sweden). We have memories from growing up in the chaotic megalopolitans of Jakarta and Shanghai, and the calm life of Scandinavia where we now call home.
In this special show GENERATIONS, we assemble an all-star team: some who live in Asia, 1st generation immigrants, and 2nd generation growing up outside Asia. The improvised stories we bring can be quirky, nostalgic, sad, funny, angry, or happy, but always with a sliver of truth.
Stranger Things Have Happened is an international improv troupe based in Groningen (NL). For over 16 years, they’ve performed nationally and internationally - from small clubs to big theatres - and hosted weekly pub jams. After performing in Oslo in 2017, they’re back with one of their favorite formats: The Waiting Room – where no one’s waiting for the same thing, and that’s exactly the point. Whether it’s a coffee from Kaffebrenneriet, the greatest love story ever told, or the zombie apocalypse, everyone’s waiting for something. But with wildly different expectations, things quickly lead to a game of miscommunications and misunderstandings. What’s not to love?
