Congratulations to the 5 classes of incredible improv students who gave their graduations performances over the weekend. Here are a few happy snaps from some of the shows and backstage action!
Look at these beautiful faces gearing up to attack the stage tonight and tomorrow night at our fall student showcase. For just 5€ you can see 3 great shows tonight or 2 tomorrow night with the hottest new talent on the scene! And man do they know how to take a cast photo!
Wanna be, gotta be Maestro! Last night @lef6816 was crowned queen of the night after a wonderful night of improv. Thanks to our audience who proved to be excellent and rigorous judges, all the players (especially those who bowed out gracefully after some pretty ridiculous elimination games), our wonderful crew who made the whole weekend run like a dream and our directors who put the whole thing together and made everybody shine. It was so great to have so many guests in stage this weekend, thank you so much for joining us!
Last night @bigafig was crowned Maestro after a wonderful night of improv!! Directors, MC, and 12 blissed out improvisers all present in this hasty after show shot with everyone high on impro an ld competition! Tonight we do it all again, will Steph defend her title or will it be snatched away by one of tonight's competitors? You the audience will decide!
It's happening tomorrow night! 12 performers, 1 goal, 2 nights More exciting, more excruciating, more uncompromising than ever before: prepare for the competition of the year. 12 performers from the Barcelona improv community will fight against each other to win the title that's the fulfillment of their wildest dreams: The Maestro. This will be a night filled with love and laughter, desperation and tears, courage and pride. The scenes are scored by you, the audience, until only one player remains…the Maestro. Friday and Saturday, 30 November & 1 December Doors 20:30, Show 21:00 Tinta Roja - C/ Creu dels Molers 17  Tickets: 10€ on the door (cash only)
Another great Maestro rehearsal last night with the full cast ready to rock it! This competitive format will feature 18 wonderful improvisers over 2 nights, and crown a new champion each night! There may be hats, and who knows what else!
It's been a while since we had this many people at our Monday night rehearsal and we had an absolute blast with so many members of the improv community joining us in preparation for next weekend's Maestro! Failing with enthusiasm was the name of the game as we mixed up bodies, heads and languages. Scene of the night goes to @wecravethestage with his famous last word 'APRENDER!' while being mauled by a bear. It's sure to be a great show, catch it 30/11 or 1/12. Info on our Facebook, website, flyer, etc.
No rest for the knackered! Today we made our way out to Granollers to perform for the students of SEK. Thanks to Ms. Baker (everyone's favourite drama teacher) who is teaching the next generation of improvisers and brings us back every year to bust out our highest energy show of the year. She doesn't even get mad when we jump off the stage, breaking all the safety rules they've been trying to instill.
The very last survivors of the very delicious #bigif5 survivors dinner at @hawker45bcn. Even after the 100th round of goodbye hugs, no one wanted to leave, the best sign of a great festival! Safe travels home to all and see you next year!
Well well well the final night of #bigif5 is behind us and 24 hours later many of our new and old friends are already back home nursing the post-festival blues. Last night we had 2 more killer mixers from Inspired by the Sun and a Short Form Musical show that even paid homage to all the previous shows! Lamabati wove us a beautiful free form web and Do Not Adjust Your Stage took us home with a hilarious set inspired by local art. Time to rest and reflect, write to all those new friends, get to work on all the new skills and inspiration acquired and keep the spirit alive! Thank you to the 12 wonderful teachers for all that you gave to the festival and its participants, without you this simply couldn't happen. Thank you to 7 the wonderful groups who came to perform, and shared with us all the wonderful things improv can be. Thank you to all the participants, both local and from abroad who participated in workshops, performed in mixers and came to the shows, you are the lifeblood of this festival and we love you all. See ya next year!
Aaaaand day 3 of #bigif5 is over and we can't believe how fast the week has gone. Plenty of amazing workshops lead into a great night of shows, kicked off with an icy performance of La Personita de Vidrio by our multilingual mixer team. Rainbow Warriors took on all the labels, including 'delightful' with their short form show, and our second mixer wowed us with a great new format True Story. BIG finished the night with their show Filters, and it was a joy and an honour to play in front of all our friends from home and abroad! Tomorrow (well, ahem, today) is the last day and we're ready to gooooo.
Day 2 of #bigif5 was full of more great workshops and shows. Mixer team How 'Bout This showed us the joy of inspired play and Sound Effects and Noisy People delivered on their promise with brilliant noisy fun. Phil Lunn as Mother Nature graced our stage with songs and musings about the world and our place in it, and 7 Women of Different Ages rocked the stage with a show about friendship and witches! Stay tuned folks cos there's more to come!
