The Mischief 2026 workshop programme is now well underway as we enter week two of both our 6-week Improvisation for Beginners course And 6-week Improvisation for Actors course. This week participants will be taking their first steps into scene work; learning about the circle of expectation and how to build scenes by engaging with a scene partner. The focus is on removing the pressure to “generate” ideas and instead encouraging playful, collaborative teamwork If you’re interested in booking a workshop with us, send us an email at [email protected] . . #workshops #improvisation #learning #development #growth #personaldevelopment #upskilling

The ‘Career Defining’ Christmas Eve joke @RiverfrontArts I used to be a scholar of Viking Mythology. My favourite story is that of a Viking Warrior named ‘Rudolph the Red.’ Rudolph was looking out of the window one night when he turned to his wife and said ‘It’s going to rain.” To which his wife responded, “How could you possibly know that?’ “Because Rudolph the Red, knows rain, dear” Audience reaction 10/10 (Full round of applause from the audience) #joke #xmas #jokeoftheday #panto
