Instant Theatre cast members

The Instant Theatre Company turns 20 this year with plans to celebrate two decades of alternative improv comedy in Vancouver with a season of shows. Here’s an overview of their landmark season starting October 17.

October 17 to 19
The Drive-in Double Feature
Bloodcurdling Tales in 3D!

This year’s Halloween double bill will feature two fantastic shows – the first half a blood-drenched parody of the classic slasher films of the 70’s and 80’s, the second half a pack of teenage super-sleuths hunting for ghosts and mystery.


November 14 to 16
Cornelius Fontaine’s Secret Family

An Evening of Spectacular Sketch Comedy

A jam-packed evening with improv and sketch comedy. Join us for hilarious characters, video, and sketches written and performed by the Instant Theatre Company.


December 19 to 21
The 12 Days of Kickin’ Ass

A Blockbuster Improvised Holiday Action Adventure

This holiday season, something BIG is going to happen in Little Falls. Only one man can save the holiday… and himself. Find out what happens when Instant Theatre improvises a show using themes of A Christmas Carol, It’s A Wonderful Life, Point Break and Die Hard!

February 6 to 8, 2014
Thunder Awesome and the Lightning Fantastic

The Improvised Dystopian Rock Musical

The beautiful sounds of the apocalypse are all around us. In this dystopian future, a young traveler learns about life, finds love, and helps a rag tag group overcome a great evil, in song and dance.



March 13 to 15, 2014
Professor Mendelson and His Mind 
Improvisations
Inspired by the Written Word

The evening will combine written surprises with great feats of improvisation. The first act will challenge the cast with the completion of a one-act play with only the first five pages written. The second half will feature a re-envisioning of a 2006 hit. Warren Bates stars as Mendelson, piecing together the fragments of his life while writing his memoirs with chapter headlines from the audience.
