Welcome to the Shiny Things Improv Blog
Hello, lovely improvisers, comedy fans, and people who thought this was a jewellery blog. We have officially launched!
Welcome to the ultimate resource for all things improv comedy in London (and beyond)—a place to help you get on stage, improve your craft, and navigate this weird and wonderful community. Whether you're a fresh-faced newbie wondering where to go next, a seasoned pro looking for new nights to play, or someone who just really enjoys shouting “Yes, and!” at strangers on the bus, you’re in the right place (but also, don’t shout at strangers).
The Shiny Things Improv Blog will be bringing you weekly(ish) content covering all aspects of the art, including:
Stage Time – Guides to gigs, jams, and putting on your own shows, helping you land the stage time you need to grow, improve, and feel part of this brilliant community.
Tips & Tricks – From quick scene hacks, to getting audiences through the door, to the best way to organise a team spreadsheet—expect everything you need to stay on top of it all.
Podcast Interviews – I’ll be chatting with some of the biggest names in UK improv, getting their insights, war stories, and wisdom—because there's nothing like hearing it straight from the horse’s mouth.
Skill Deep Dives – Want to master a new accent at home? Deliver a killer monologue? We’ll be breaking down key improv skills to help you level up.
But that’s not all! If you’ve got a topic you’d love to see covered, let me know. Whether it’s a burning improv question, a gig I’ve missed, or a ridiculous idea for a post, I want to hear it.
This blog is a love letter to the London improv scene—a community full of hilarious, talented, and slightly chaotic people (you know who you are, and I love you). It exists to help you play more, connect more, and laugh more.
