From July 31 to August 4, Impro Australia and Theatresports present five days of improvisation, comedy and drama with the Impro Festival at New Theatre.

The festival will open with The Whole Story, an evening of long-form improvisation directed by Marko Mustac. Wednesday will be double-feature night with Ewan Campbell's epic World War II comic drama, Churchill's Unmentionables, and Bard to the Bone, Shakespeare’s plays improvised under the guidance of Oli Burton.

Thursday will see the return of one of Sydney's most revered improvised comedy shows, Cale Bain's The Director's Mind. Another double feature night will take place on the Friday, with Puppets vs People, returning from its national tour, and Impro Lab-Rinth, David Bowie's classic movie improvised. The festival will close on Saturday, August 4, with the Theatresports Cup Winners Cup, a battle between the winners of various theatresports cups, from the Cranston to the High School.
