The wisdom of making it up as you go along.

“Improbable is one of the brilliant faces of British Theatre." The Observer

IMPRO FOR ELDERS: The wisdom of making it up as you go along
Award-winning theatre company Improbable have worked with a group of older people local to Church Street to create a brand new performance. This show will be presented in a double bill with Improbable’s show, Lifegame. Made at Church Street Library.

LIFEGAME: Part chat show, part impro show.
“Hootingly funny, sometimes exceptionally touching. And the strangest thing is that we watch as if we are the guest, standing outside our own lives.” The Financial Times

Lifegame has been performed around the world since 1998. A member of the public is interviewed on stage about their life, with the stories they tell dramatized by a company of improvisers. A different guest every show, a different show every night. Instantaneous theatrical biography. In this special version of Lifegame, a member of the Impro For Elders group (also a resident of the Church Street area) will be the guest. What are the stories that only a Church Street local could tell? Join us to find out.
