Featuring the cream of homegrown talent including: Chortle Award-winning Austentatious: An Improvised Jane Austen Novel; songs and sketches from The Glenda J Collective; Lights! Camera! Improvise! from Olivier Award-winners Mischief Theatre (The Play That Goes Wrong); and of course members of The Showstoppers themselves.

Plus world class improv from The Sufferettes (Canada), Almost Ibsen (Norway) and the European premiere of Improvised Dungeons And Dragons with the internationally renowned improviser Mark Meer. Also featuring the all-new Ken Campbell Caper Competition - an improvisation battle starring performers from all over the globe, originally conceived by legendary maverick theatre genius Ken Campbell.

The Jam also includes improv workshops for professionals and public alike. Hone your skills with our international guests or find out how a little improv in your world can enhance your day to day.

Followed by The 10th Annual London Improvathon with this year's title 'Lord Of The Thrones'. Tolkien meets George RR Martin in this hilarious improvised comedy soap opera in 25 episodes, running continuously and overnight across an entire weekend.

The annual marathon stars some of the funniest performers from the UK and overseas. With many going without sleep for 50 hours, this is theatre at its most exciting and unpredictable.

There will be live music throughout and an all-night bar. Drop in for one episode, a few, or join the party and stay for the whole thing!

Directed by Adam Meggido, Olivier Award winner with The Showstoppers and director of West End hit Peter Pan Goes Wrong.
