WIT Dreamz
Hop into bed with Wellington Improv Troupe (WIT)!
It’s time to delve beneath the duvet into the subconscious mind of dreams and nightmares. Wellington Improv Troupe (WIT) blows into town from the windy city on Wed 18th May, ready to whip up a little hurricane of delight. In WIT Dreamz, Wellington’s finest improvisers will weave the audience’s night-time visions into a web of surreal, hilarious and occasionally spooky stories.
Why do we dream? This is a question that has puzzled priests, philosophers and pscychologists throughout the ages. Now a bunch of improvisers are determined to find the answer! Before each show the audience anonymously writes down snippets of their dreams and nightmares. The improvisers then use these dream inspirations to create scenes, stories and songs, taking the audience on a hilarious journey around the most bizarre corners of the human mind.
“You will have never seen a show quite like this”, says WIT Director Geoff Simmons, “If you are used to Theatresports style improv this show will blow you away. WIT Dreamz is a completely original show, being performed for the first time here in Auckland. We love it because there is no better inspiration than the crazy stuff floating around in our heads.”
Wellington Improv Troupe (WIT) has been running for over seven years, they are New Zealand’s largest improv troupe and are an established part of the scene in the Cultural Capital. They never fail to tickle the audience’s funny bone, nor hold back from pushing the boundaries of improvisation.
“another small miracle of ingenious group creativity” John Smythe, Theatreview.
