MAESTRO

MAESTRO

Looking to elevate your improv? 

Maestro Impro™ is often described as a 'crash-and-burn-elimination-style'  improv show. Maestro brings in two of Bad Dog Theatre’s top tier improvisers as two directors. Throughout the evening they will be akin to two conductors guiding an improv symphony. 

This begins with a free warm-up workshop that improvisers of all levels are welcome to attend. The directors will then choose up to 12 workshop participants to perform in the show! The directors are there to inspire the players, while the audience scores each scene. As the evening progresses, players are eliminated, until only one player remains and is crowned The Maestro. 

The Maestro wins the most coveted prize of all - a crisp Canadian 5-dollar bill!

No symphony would be complete without - notes. So expect plenty of thoughtful feedback from your directors after the show. 

As part of Bad Dog Theatre’s Sweet Sweet Wednesdays program with Sweet Action Theatre.

Frequently asked questions

  • Attending the workshop grants you a chance to be cast in one of the 12 available spots in the show. Due to limited space, not all participants can be cast. You're welcome and encouraged to keep coming to warm ups even if you don't get in the show the first time!

  • Nope! Your ticket grants you access to both, but if you just want to be an audience member, then select "Show Audience" when you purchase your ticket and come for 8pm. If you change your mind and want to join the workshop, no need to change your ticket. Just show up at 7!

  • All 12 performers are encouraged to stay after the show to get some thoughtful feedback from your directors. This is a great chance to get professional advice on your performance and technique, and to ask questions!
