Tonight’s show features…

Magicked! – Everyone loves Harry Potter, and in tribute to the world’s favourite pubescent wizard, this summer, tonight’s show assumes the form of an improvised tribute to Harry Potter. Featuring spells, adventures, heroes and villians; everything you remember…and perhaps a little more.

PLUS…

Armando Diaz and Friends perform the Armando Diaz Hootenanny and Theatrical Experience – ‘The Armando’ began as an improv form in Chicago and is now performed throughout the world. It begins with true monologues, a story from the player’s own life. After the monologue, players improvise scenes inspired by it. Ever wondered what the original Armando was like? Well, here is your chance.

Armando is widely regarded as one of the best improv teachers in New York City and beyond. His list of teaching credits is a long one: the Improv Olympic Theater, Victory Gardens Theater, The Upright Citizens Brigade Theater, NYU and Michael Howard Studios. He has trained dozens of actors who have performed or written for Saturday Night Live, Late Night with Conan O’Brien, Mad TV, and The Daily Show.
