Scene Painting

Presented by the New Zealand Improv Festival

It's the final show of the 2025 New Zealand Improv Festival, and we're bringing together some of our favourite performers for a once-in-a-lifetime show.

Improvisers will often paint a scene, using narration to conjure images in the mind of the audience. But what if they could actually paint the scene?

Thanks to the generous support of Resene Paints, we'll be doing just that: actually painting our scenes onto the stage and walls at BATS. Come send off the Festival with a messy, beautiful explosion of colour!

As this show is improvised, we cannot guarantee the presence or absence of specific content or themes beyond what is in the description above. The show may contain mature themes and language, but not gratuitously. The show may contain voluntary audience interaction, such as giving a suggestion for a scene.
