Bursting with love, poetry, comedy, tragedy, mistaken identity, cross-dressing, the supernatural and everything in between, Impromptu Shakespeare bring you an entirely new ‘Shakespeare’ play inspired by audience suggestions, to delight Shakespeare nerds and newbies alike.

Our players have their tongues firmly in their cheeks and their feet planted in the works of the Bard. Join us for an hour of riotous fun as the cast buckle on the Bard’s britches to bring you the plays he never wrote.
Featuring a cast of leading theatrical and comedic improvisers, they’ve performed five critically acclaimed runs at the Edinburgh Fringe and three at the Bristol Shakespeare Festival, were featured on BBC radio’s The Art of Improv and were the sell-out sensation of 2018’s Stroud Theatre Festival!

“Simply sublime, side-splittingly hilarious improvised comedy almost worthy of the Bard himself.”
★★★★★ Broadway Baby

“Go and see this show. It’s intelligent, it’s funny, it’s all of the adjectives for brilliant. I’m still not sure how they did what they did.”
★★★★★ Pocket Size Theatre

“Shakespeare from the hip. Ingenious and very funny.”
