    Join us for a double feature of of improvised multicultural fairytales and spoken word inspired scenes. Part of the Brisbane Improv Festival!

    The Beat Cafe
    Presented by Impro Melbourne(Narrm/Melbourne, Australia)

    Spoken words, spoken spontaneously, send scenes and stories swirling on to stage. Softly skipping off the page. Subtle joys and sudden rage. Ours to speak and yours to gauge.
    Lips loosed lovingly to let language loom large. A wonderful world of wandering words willfully wending your way.

    Also some heaps funny scenes and stuff.


    In a Land Wer Ya From
    Presented by Janette McBride & Big Fork Theatre (Meanjin/Brisbane, Australia)

    Embark on an improvised fairytale of multicultural superstitions and folklore! Heroes will clash with villains where tree giants, half-humans, and genies roam. Rub a rabbit's foot for good luck on this enchanting adventure!

    In a Land Wer Ya From is presented by Janette McBride and Big Fork Theatre, who host Queensland’s only dedicated multicultural improv show.
