The Spontaneity Shop: Maestro Impro - Sunday 11th
May
Fifteen comedy improvisers will play out a series
of sketches and games – all completely made-up on
the spot. At the end of each one, they will throw
themselves on your mercy! You, the audience, award
the points which will determine who stays in the
competition and who is eliminated.
At the end of the night, there will be one
glorious winner – the funniest of them all, the
improviser’s improviser, the champion of
champions.
But it won’t happen without your votes, so be
there and be part of the fun.
7pm
Tickets cost £8 (Can be bought in advance

Tricks and Amelia wait. They both have their headphones
and it’s nearly time. Through the wonders of the
internet, they find themselves locked in a chance
meeting, unable to grasp the strange reality that is
about to hit them.
Written and Directed by Serena Obhrai.
Starring Darren Stoneham and Serena Obhrai.

The
Cockpit Theatre is conveniently situated in central London.
Purpose-built in 1970, we are confident it offers the best value
hiring opportunities of like kind within the M25.
The
theatre is well-known in the arts and entertainments industry and
the venue's engaging atmosphere and reputation for innovative work
(and easy evening parking) makes it popular with press, VIPs and
audiences alike.
The
Cockpit has its own small team of permanent, dedicated staff but is
owned and funded by City of Westminster College; a combination that
makes for a friendly, professional environment but comparatively low
overheads - enabling us to offer highly competitive rates.
