Fancy trying something a little more melodic? Showstopper is and improvised musical that has been in success since 2008. After selling out Edinburgh Fringe Festival, two West End Runs and an Olivier Award, not to mention a BBC Radio 4 Series... there's no stopping these guys. 

Within the show, the audience is introduced to a musical writer who is on a deadline and needs their assistance and participation. The audience is encouraged to shout out suggestions of a setting, muscial styles and even the title of the show... and here's where the fun begins. The cast and crew with the help of the audience create a magical musical complete with dance routines, songs and all the energy of Broadway with absolutely no rehearsals. 

If you feel like digging deeper, there's even an 8 week long musical theatre workshop where you can learn to improvise that art of music and acting. 

There's plenty upcoming shows to choose from, you can explore them here. Are you down to get involved and create the next hit musical?
