About the Glasgow Improv Theatre

Our goal is to help nurture the budding improv scene in Glasgow by providing structured training and performance opportunities.

We focus on American-style long form improv comedy, with a strong emphasis on game-of-the-scene and grounded reality.

The theatre is a continuation of Improv Glasgow, which started in 2016 running the monthly show Glasgow Harold Night as well as drop-in workshops and jams.
