The Made-Up Smackdown: Favourites Box

Presented by the New Zealand Improv Festival

A long-standing Festival highlight, The Made-Up Smackdown is a thrilling, unpredictable competition of late-night improvisational glory.

For the final night of the Festival, all the teams picked as audience favourites in the previous Made-Up Smackdowns reassemble for one last time, to answer the ultimate question: what will they do to win a second box of chocolates?

Come and enjoy a selection of favourites from previous nights, and decide which is your favourite favourite!
