Improv for the Dark Ages: Action 705 Improv & The Lady Bards

The Action 705 improv troupe returns to The Theatre on King, joining forces with The Lady Bards for a night of medieval madness, pagan pageantry, and unholy laughter.

The hard-hitting news has gone off the air, and in its place rises a radiant, evangelical program, where one of our own has been possessed, and the only path to salvation… is improv. Expect the usual Action 705 chaos, now with added anointings, divine revelations, and questionable preaching.

Meanwhile, The Lady Bards bring their signature Shakespearean flair, twisting classic improv games into poetic mischief. They’ll “wherefore art” their way through scenes of courtly confusion, tragicomedy, and pure farce.

Together, the two troupes summon a new-format showcase filled with spontaneous games, dark humor, and absurdly charming characters. From devilish wit to divine nonsense, no scene escapes the frost untouched.

So grab thy goblet, ready thy laughter, and cast thy suggestions into the fray.
