A registered charity improv theatre at 51 Mackelvie Street in Grey Lynn, Auckland. The website says it runs improv shows, improv courses for kids, teens and adults, corporate hire and charity nights. Improv 101 is open to anyone 18 or over, with no experience needed, and runs as a 10-week course of two hours. Improv 201 is a 10-week course of 1.5 hours, for those who have completed 101. The website says fees are not refunded once a course is paid for, unless the class is cancelled. Scholarships are offered for all classes, and every dollar spent goes back into the community programmes, according to the website. The venue can be hired.
Reviewers mention improv most often, followed by cosy theatre and impromptu shows. One customer called it an institution for theatre lovers, and said you can watch a performance or train there, with a bar area for networking. Another held a private function there and found the acoustics, the look, the staff and the bar excellent. A third saw a show where the audience chose how the story ended and the actors improvised the rest, and found it very funny. The venue is right off Ponsonby Road and includes a bar.
