ABOUT
Third Wheel Improv presents: A Night of Short Form Improv
Join us for an evening of hilarity, giddiness, and yes, the occasional guffaw, as some of Cape Town's most experienced improvisers conjure comical scenes out of thin air — inspired entirely by your suggestions. No script. No safety net. Just pure, unfiltered comedy, made up on the spot.
Featuring: Bill Russell, Eva Gilliam, Justine Beukes, Rob Coutts, Siphumziwe Pags Lucwaba, Tamith Hattingh, Thomas Dods
Show: 19h00 for 19h30
Gen Admission: R150 | Pensioners (60+): R125
BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE! Join our Short Form Improv Mechanics Workshop first.
Before the curtain goes up, spend the afternoon with Third Wheel cast members getting under the hood of classic short form games.
We’ll decode how some of your favourite short form games actually work, figuring out the specific triggers that make them funny, and learning how to let the game rules do the heavy lifting so you don't have to force the comedy.
You'll walk away knowing why some rounds fly and others stall, and the practical tricks that make short form effortless to play.
Who it's for: Improvisers and performers who want to sharpen their game play, pick up the pace, and master short form mechanics.
Workshop: 14h00–16h30
Workshop + Show combo: R350 (Limited spots available)
