Stage is set for Claquers Improvisation

Following the success of Claque’s theatre improvisation course, held at Tonbridge School this August, a team of ten Claquers are set to continue working with director Jon Oram as a local performing impro group.

Improvisational theatre takes many forms often comedic but the Claquers preference for storytelling over gags can often result in subtle and poignant drama for their audiences. Their last performance, Riotous Behaviour, received praise for being ‘uplifting’, ‘entertaining’ and ‘a great reflection of their hard work’.

This type of performance isn’t only for actors. Claquers Impro is attracting people with a mix of skills who have a common interest in nurturing quick thinking and creativity.

Future plans for the group include preparations for a fully improvised production to tour around Kent and Sussex as well as shorter workshops to help grow audiences and encourage their engagement with improvisation as an art form.

Claquers Impro meet every Monday from 7.30pm – 9pm at the Church of Christ, Commercial, Tunbridge Wells. If you’d like to join, please e-mail claquers@claquetheatre.com or check our events page for details.
