It’s Improv – but with a difference! We hear your true-life moments, events, incidents, dilemmas & experiences, and play them back in a variety of improvised, theatrical forms. Be warned this is fun but powerful theatre: you might cry, you might laugh - probably both! We find the Funny in the Serious and the Serious in the Funny – you will feel heard, seen and celebrated. We also usually find that individual themes are often shared and understood by everyone in the room.
This show is part of the Greater Manchester Improv Festival (GMIF) 5th-7th June 2026. From up and coming acts to award-winning show the festival showcases local talent and visiting shows. For the 2026 festival there are 20 shows and 4 workshops with tickets for all shows just £5! Once you've done booking a ticket for this one, why not check out all the other fantastic shows too?
