Comedy powerhouses Adam Cawley & Rob Norman perform Long-Form IMPROV - smart, unscripted scenes that build hilarious, unforgettable payoffs
About this Event

What happens when two of Canada’s sharpest comedic minds walk on stage with absolutely nothing prepared? Pure, unscripted brilliance.

RN & Cawls are masters of long-form improv—a style of improvisational comedy where a single suggestion from the audience sparks a full, interconnected performance of scenes, characters, and absurd situations that unfold in real time. No sketches. No scripts. Just two performers building a hilarious world together, one unpredictable moment at a time.

Think of it like watching a movie being made from scratch—except the writers, directors, and actors are the same two people, and they’re making it all up on the spot.

Whether they’re playing over-the-top characters, turning awkward silences into belly laughs, or riffing off each other with wild speed and chemistry, RN & Cawls bring a level of play and precision that’s rare in the world of improv. Their show is a fan-favourite at festivals across the country for a reason: it’s unpredictable, unforgettable, and often downright unhinged!

If you’ve never seen long-form improv before, this is the show that will turn you into a diehard fan.
