IMPROV TEAMS
Meet our house teams, learn about Harold auditions, and pitch a show if you have one!
House Teams
House Guests is our flagship show featuring several Atom regulars and many of our pals from neighbouring theatres and beyond. Each show features a special guest monologist who will share stories inspired by a suggestion from the audience that will work as inspiration for the entire show! Past guests have included Will Hines, Graham Dickson, Michelle Gilliam and many more!
Stupid is an improvised comedy duo featuring Al Donohoe and Mike Burton.
Inspired by audience suggestions, the pair of fast-thinking fools create comedic scenes that thematically link while bouncing off one another. And, as the name suggests, things soon get silly…
Not only does the duo make it up as they go along, but they also play multiple characters within scenes, and, at times, swap and play each other's characters. Watching them skillfully keep pace with their own spontaneous creation only adds to the fun.
The show is joyful, daring and very, very stupid.

Auditions
After every 301 class, we aim to run a new batch of auditions for Harold teams. Harold teams aren't forever and the hope is that after a run on Harold night, teams go on to develop new forms and groups. Before you audition, make sure you can give up enough time to be on a team.
