Hoopla Impro Newsletter

Hoopla’s Cambridge Improv Workshops are back! This time they are pre-bookable, rather than drop-in, to make sure the class size stays small and that you get lots of time having fun on stage.

We’re going to have some fun improvising scenes, stories and sketches. You don’t need any drama, acting, comedy or impro experience whatsoever. You don’t have to be clever, fast or funny either!

If you want to be kept up to date with improvised comedy in Cambridge please join the Improvised Comedy in Cambridge facebook group or contact us to be put on the mailing list.

We get people from all backgrounds at our workshops as they’re a great place to have fun at the weekend and do all the fun bits of drama and impro without the commitment of regular rehearsals or learning lines.

You don’t need any drama, acting, comedy or impro experience whatsoever. You don’t have to be clever, fast or funny.

About the teacher, Steve Roe

Steve Roe founded the UK’s first ever improvised comedy club at The Miller in London Bridge. He co-founded Hoopla in 2006 and has been teaching improvisation for over seven years. He’s also produced, directed and performed in multiple improvised comedy shows in London and at The Edinburgh Fringe, receiving 5 star reviews from The Edinburgh Guide, Fringe Guru and Remote Goat.

In 2012 Hoopla’s Improv Comedy Club was recommended as the best place to see improvised comedy in London by both The Daily Telegraph AND The Londonist.

“If improvisation floats your boat you should head to The Miller by London Bridge every Tuesday (and Wednesday) for Hoopla. There’s fewer better ways to see what spur-of-the-moment comedy London has to offer.” - The Londonist, November 2012.
