Improv Masala
Presented by Ambika GKR and Friends
Improv Masala is an improvised comedy show inspired by the masala movie of Indian cinema.
The show is a spicy blend of genres, set in Aotearoa New Zealand with a multi-ethnic, largely immigrant cast. We play with the genre and mine for comedy gold in the gaps between cultures.
After 4 sold-out shows in Auckland, we invite you to the NZ Improv Festival where the cast will dish up an Aotearoa-Bollywood story, made up on the spot. There will be drama. There will be action. There will be comedy. Yes, there will be singing and dancing.
Creative team
Ambika GKR, Yoong Ru Heng, Anand Patel, and up to 3 more performers to be cast.
