Here, you can discover everything you need to know about our Brighton improv courses and events, offering something for everyone, whether you’re a seasoned performer or just starting out.

Improv in Brighton has a rich history that dates back over two decades. The scene was first put on the map by John Cremer and The Maydays, pioneers who brought the art of improvisation to the forefront of the city’s cultural life. Their influence laid the foundation for a community that is still growing and thriving. Over the years, this vibrant tradition has only grown, attracting performers and enthusiasts from all walks of life.
