Shake It Up: The Improvised Shakespeare Show
Shakespeare hasn’t written anything new for an age, so we thought we would give him a hand…
Using his language, your audience suggestions, and our overactive imaginations, ShakeItUp create a brand-new Shakespeare play live on stage, complete with live music, songs, and plenty of laughs.
Pick your authentic Shakespearean genre: Epic History, Romantic Comedy, or Gruesome Tragedy! Pen your wittiest Shakespearean line for our brave actors to pull from their suitably Shakespearean breeches when they need a helping hand – the twist? They’ll have no idea what the line will be before they say it!
Then sit back and watch the hilarity unfold in a totally bonkers play that Willy Shakes himself would be proud of. Expect big laughs, high drama, and plenty of bard-based bedlam!
'Quick witted, inexhaustible and absolutely hysterical' ★★★★★ London Theatre Reviews
'Brilliantly bonkers…one of the best improvised shows out there' ★★★★★ West End Best Friend
'Clever, witty, and extremely funny' ★★★★★ One4Review
ShakeItUp Theatre launched The Improvised Shakespeare Show in 2018. Since then they have performed well over 100 totally improvised Shakespeare plays to audiences across the UK, from the Minack Theatre in Cornwall, to London’s The Other Palace, and to the Edinburgh Fringe; even performing internationally in Italy, Poland, and Germany.

Schubert 4 Songs from Schwanengesang
Mozart Piano Quartet in G minor,K.478
In this delightful Viennese programme, two of Mozart’s greatest chamber works rub shoulders with Schubert’s eloquent Duo and a selection of his last songs.
Mozart is thought to have written his Kegelstatt Trio whilst playing a game of skittles, while his G minor Quartet has an altogether darker and more intense quality.

The Britpop Hour with Marc Burrows
The Britpop Hour’ is a stand-up, musical and multimedia celebration of one of British music’s most iconic and enduring movements.
Marking the 30th anniversary of the genre’s pinnacle: the 1995 Blur / Oasis chart battle, as well as coinciding with the reformed Oasis’ record-busting reunion tour, the show delves into the ridiculous stories, the OTT personalities and the enduring rivalries, all while celebrating some of the best music Britain has ever produced.
Part warm, trivia-packed tribute, part send-up and part one-man rock ‘n’ roll party, The Britpop Hour is written and performed by award winning music journalist, author, comedian, musician and 90s refugee Marc Burrows (The Guardian, The Quietus, The Independent, Big Issue, New Statesman). Mad fer’it, do ya know what I mean?
