About
We welcome all friends and whānau to see Choose Your Own Adventure! presented by the students of “Off-Script! An Intro To Longform Improv” from Improverished.
Choose Your Own Adventure! is a fully improvised narrative show where the audience gets to choose what happens next. It’s like reading a Choose Your Own Adventure! book but without the reading. Should the explorers jump over the quicksand or try to wade through? You choose! Should the Evil Queen curse the princess or bake her a cake? You choose!
Improverished is an improvised theatre company who have been bringing joy to the stage since 2015. Specialising in long-form, narrative improv, we have brought many of our beloved shows to The PumpHouse Theatre in the past and have two upcoming seasons with our main company in September. It’s Alive! and Can I Get an Underground Location and a Mythical Creature? are coming to The PumpHouse for the September school holidays.
This show is presented by an incredible and diverse group of improvisers who have been studying longform improv with us for 6 weeks through the course “Off-Script! An Intro To Longform Improv”. While our students range from quite new to quite experienced, this is all of their first time performing a full narrative improv show, and we hope to see lots of friends and whānau come out to support them.
Please bring Koha (cash or EFTPOS) on the night to support our theatre company to continue to make our future performances and workshops accessible. We suggest around $3-$8 per person.
SHOW INFO
Runtime
105 minutes with an interval
Age Recommendation
This show is fully improvised and is suitable for adult audiences.
Advisory
No audience members will be asked to come on stage; however, there will be frequent times when the narrator asks the whole audience to vote on their preferred choice, as this show is called “Choose Your Own Adventure,” after all. The performers in this show are student improvisers, and we expect this show to be a little rough around the edges.
