ABOUT

About This Show

The Maidstone Improv Festival's headline evening event is back — and this year we're going bigger.

Improvaganza brings together two outstanding professional improv companies for a night of live, unscripted comedy that you genuinely cannot see anywhere else. No scripts. No rehearsed punchlines. No safety net. Just brilliant performers, your suggestions, and whatever magic happens in between.

 

What Is Improv Comedy?

If you've never seen live improv before, here's what you need to know: everything you're about to watch is being created in real time, on the spot, inspired entirely by the audience. The scenes, the characters, the stories — all of it invented from nothing in the moment. It's part comedy show, part high-wire act, and entirely unpredictable. No two shows are ever the same, which is precisely what makes it so thrilling to watch.

The Lineup

The Two McClanes: Seamus Allen (The London 50-Hour Improvathon, Austentatious, What's The Game Improv) and Alexander McWilliam (award-winning actor, The London 50-Hour Improvathon, Mad Monkey Improv) bring their two person sell-out improv show The Two McClanes to the Maidstone Improv Festival. Guided by the audience's music choices, a beautiful, physical, hilarious one act comedy play will be created in front of your very eyes.  

The FIT Improv Show: Lucy Trodd (Showstoppers! The Improvised Musical, London 50-Hour Improvathon) and the Folkestone Improv Theatre bring The FIT Improv Show to the Maidstone Improv Festival."
