SHOWSTOPPER! THE IMPROVISED MUSICAL
Ok, it's not a tv show, but here's a little treat that we have just been offered for SRO subscribers.

As well as being a firm favourite at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Showstopper! The Improvised Musical has played across the world in countries such as Ireland, Canada, China and The United Arab Emirates. Now, the show reaches London's West End’s Apollo Theatre on Shaftesbury Avenue near Piccadilly, where anything could happen each night!

Each night, seven performers are selected from a wider troupe to create an entirely improvised new musical for their audience, meaning no two performances are ever the same. Audiences suggest material to the performers, who will then transform their ideas into song and dance numbers, often to hilarious effect. Be it a love story, a comedy, a tragedy or something downright insane; the Showstopper! troupe will work with their material and deliver it in perfect harmony – sometimes with the odd jazz hand in tow! As well as strong improvisational skills on display from the performers, the technical team also need to be quick to react to the improvised drama!

A joyous, uproarious collaboration propelled by the quickwittedness of the multi-talented cast and their mischievous onlookers. For sheer madcappery, refreshingly wholesome, good-natured musical slapstick, this musical high-wire act is hard to beat.’ (Independent On Sunday)

We have been given a number of tickets for SRO subscribers for Thursday 24th & Friday 25th September, so if you'd like to join us for either of these dates, then apply now!
