About the show
Improv Movie by Skunkhaus is a free improv comedy show presented by PBH's Free Fringe at Back Room. Each performance, an audience member shares something they are excited about or dreading, and the ensemble weaves that into a fully improvised film — complete with puns and chaos that resolves into a coherent story. The genre shifts depending on the night: rom-com, horror, sci-fi or western. The show runs for 60 minutes and is suitable for audiences aged 18 and over. No content warnings are listed.
Why see this show?
The promise of a different improvised genre every night — your fears or excitement turned into a live film — is a Fringe concept that actually delivers. Skunkhaus take a simple premise and make it feel genuinely unpredictable.
