THE FINANCIAL TIMES
"Fearsomely able improvisers…. Extempore Theatre is the hothouse for British longform improv.’

TIME OUT CRITICS CHOICE
"Hilarious! Like nothing you’ve ever seen before. Late night clubbers and early morning joggers unite!”
An hilarious homage to all things Hollywood, featuring leading improvisers from the UK and overseas, playing a range of lovable and eccentric characters in modern-day Los Angeles. Screen sirens, budding starlets, struggling writers, crazed directors, big-shot producers… it takes all sorts to make the most successful movie studio in the world!

A core group of around 20 actors will play the whole 50 hours, going without sleep, with guest performers dropping in from time to time. There will be a band throughout and all night bar! Come for an episode, or a few, or stay for the whole thing!

There is also a special ‘Family Episode’ (Sunday 11am-1pm) where the action is suitable for children.
