About this Event
Improv comedy from your hosts Swipe Right, two guest acts we're excited about and a jam at which everyone is welcome. All for free at the excellent Shoreditch Balls - which also has golf, pizza and table football - to which the nearest Tube is Old Street.
Doors 7.45pm, show 8-10pm with an interval around halfway through.
Tickets are free and reservable right here, and this is our line-up for April:
Unbridled
Saddle up for Unbridled, the saucy improvised comedy based on the novels of Jilly Cooper and the Disney+ series Rivals. There’ll be love triangles, backstabbing feuds and more puns than you can shake a whip at – all set in the glamour of the 80s upper class.
The Hairbangers
The Hairbangers is an improvised mono-scene that drops you straight into the sweaty rehearsal room of a world-famous band at a turning point.
Maybe they’re in their prime. Maybe they’re past it. Maybe they’re four chords and a dream away from their first dive-bar gig. Wherever they land, one thing is certain: they need a hit.
Every performance is completely made up on the spot, following the rise, fall, and possible rebirth of a group trying to stay together long enough to finish the chorus. It’s big dreams, bigger hair, and the beautiful chaos of collaboration when everything is on the line.
Swipe Right
Your hosts! We perform our show Something Just Happened, Wombat Combat, or possibly something else - either way, it's likely to feature the relationships you want to see, and the relationships you may rather you hadn't.
The Jam!
Once described as 'the best improv jam in the south of England' our jam is typically made up of two or three person scenes. For your inspiration in these, you can either take an emotion from our patented 'emotometer' or receive whimsical words from a sweet treat.
It's a supportive, warm space for performers and audience members alike to jam and, usually, everyone who puts their name in gets a turn. Any questions, come find one of us (Andy, Carly, Robin and Rosie) on the night and just ask - if you want to be on stage, we'd love to have you there!
