Opening the 2023 Brisbane Improv Festival:

The Mockumentary
Presented by The Improv Hub (Qld)

Be the first to see this never-before-seen Documentary!

Your suggestion will inspire a made up on the spot documentary filled with interesting, hilarious, and slightly unhinged characters who will tell you their unique stories and perspectives, magically weaving them into a collective narrative about…….well who knows?!

St. Evangeline’s School of Intrigue and Mystery and Intrigue
Presented by Maddie Parker & Jim Fishwick (Sydney, NSW)

"Welcome, new students! We understand it can be nerve-wracking to walk the corridors of a hallowed institution such as St. Evangeline’s, but just remember that all our esteemed alumni once felt the same way. Like you, they would forget their Latin textbooks, or fall hopelessly in love with someone in the year above them or uncover a dark ritual taking place after hours on the lacrosse pitch. Simply keep your wits about you, your overcoat on during winter, your mouth shut, and you’ll feel at home in no time. Sapere aude!"

The Brisbane Improv Festival will adhere to all current COVID restrictions and requirements. More info
