It has been a long cold lockdown, but finally, ImproGuise is fleeing Zoom and climbing back
onto stage for a mini improv festival on the 6, 7 and 8 May at the Galloway Theatre.
ImproGuise, Cape Town’s oldest and most favourite improv troupe, has been entertaining
audiences with their live, totally improvised shows since 1994, and this has been the longest
period of no live performances. The cast cannot wait to get in front of a flesh and blood group
of fans for this, their 9th annual improv festival. 
Each night will be totally different, and ImproGuise have chosen three of their most loved
formats to lure live audiences back. Here is what you can expect.

6 May – Game on! - Based on their hugely popular short form, Theatresports, this is a super
charged and fun improv show with an emcee, judges from the audience and 2 teams,
competing in a series of short and outrageous improv games based on suggestions from the
audience. Yes, this is the one you always ask for.

7 May - Superscene – This fast paced, highly competitive format is also a firm favourite
with ImproGuise fans. Here 6 improvising directors compete against each other with scenes
and pitches to the audience for the huge honour of last one standing to perform the final
Superscene.

8 May - Fake Place - This delightful longform format sees the highly skilled improvisers
exploring a fictional place and playing all the loveable and eccentric characters in it. Heart-
warming and gut- wrenchingly funny.

9th Annual Improv Festival

After a somewhat turbulent 2020, the Waterfront Theatre School is proud to present its highly acclaimed Choreographic Competition. With Covid-19 protocols in place to ensure the safety of our patrons, our students will be given the opportunity to showcase their creative prowess once again.

Designed to display the very best of the college's student choreographers, the competition showcases a diverse programme of choreography across a broad range of dance styles, including Musical Theatre, Contemporary, Tap, Jazz and Street Dance. A team of high-profile choreographers and industry professionals will adjudicate the dynamic event that takes place over four evenings.

Award categories include Best Choreographer of a Solo, Trio/Quartet and Group in each genre; Best Novice Choreographer, Best Male and Best Female Choreographer, Most Outstanding
Male Dancer, Most Outstanding Female Dancer, Outstanding Overall Performance and the Full House Award that considers full production elements i.e. Music, Casting, Choreography, Costume, and
Staging.

Some of our past winners include: Hope Maimane, who has since founded a dance training programme called The Academy and frequently choreographs for the Unity SA Dance Team; London-based Thalia Burt who recently made her West End Debut at Theatre Royal, Drury Lane and is currently the Resident
Choreographer and Director for the musical Cats; Rushney Ferguson, a Fleur Du Cap Nominated Actress for her performance in David Kramer’s production, Langarm and Sonwabiso Sakuba, who toured in the international production of The Lion King in Spain. 

The Choreographic Competition takes place in the Lane Theatre at the Waterfront Theatre School and is open to the public with performances from 12th-16th May 2021 at 7:30pm. The performance on Sunday 16th May starts at 3pm and includes the awards ceremony.
