It's a DOUBLE FEATURE®

It’s a DOUBLE FEATURE®

Peter More and Ryan Millar with back-to-back solo improv shows.
Two movies for the price of one!

I think we can all agree that it’s been a pretty January-like January so far. And now that it’s drawing to a close, we should change gears, to start ramping up our excitement for the rest of the year.

Well, great news: I have just the thing.

Presenting DOUBLE FEATURE®, a two-person solo improv comedy show. That’s no oxymoron: it’s just a fact. Because me and Peter More both have one-man cinema-themed improv shows. So we put them together and there you have it: a double bill of jaw-dropping improvised entertainment.

It’s like seeing two movies in a row, but there’s no popcorn, screen, other actors or budget. Otherwise, very much the same.

DOUBLE FEATURE is the kind of thing that you didn’t even know you desperately wanted to see. Until you see it, and wonder how you got this far in life without seeing it.

Who it’s for:

Film buffs
Improv-lovers
Theatre afficionados
Club kids (and regular children)
All the single ladies
Eligible bachelors
Family units
Ultimate Frisbee teams
The elderly

I fear I may have missed a few categories, but you get the point: it’s for everybody.

And there are two (2!) opportunities to catch this show in the near future.

19 January (Sunday) – 8pm. At Mezrab. €5

28 January (Tuesday) – 10.30pm. At Compagnietheater (as part of IMPRO Amsterdam)

NB: DOUBLE FEATURE® is the late night show on the opening night of the 19th International Improv Festival. That’s an ideal time to come and see our show after watching the mainstage shows that kick-off the fest.

Aaaaand, you may as well get yourself a festival pass, because the festival sells out every year!

NB2: I’m also teaching my ‘Taking it easy’ workshop on Saturday afternoon. It’s a fantastic workshop, nestled into a programme of fantastic workshops. Take a few. (UPDATE: As of today – 12 days before the date – it’s sold out. If you wanted in, but didn’t get a spot, I guess you should get in touch with me directly, and we can organise something.

“Very inspiring and useful workshop. Picked me up from where I’m at and helped me develop strategies to improve developing scenes and my performance skills.”

Anonymous, Switzerland

Martin, Tampere

“Ryan’s coaching sessions really improved my public speaking skills and made my presentations much more interesting for my audience.”

Furio S., Berlin

Tracy, Dublin

“Absolutely brilliant! Exceptional work!”

Anonymous, Impro Hotel

“I loved loved loved your workshop. I liked the way it was structured and meaningful. Time flew unnoticed. I liked the shortness of the exercises, the surprise and fun, and the fact that you gave me so much to explore. I now can be in an empty prison cell or in a desert island and never feel alone or bored anymore. Now I can expand my world.”

Elsa, Lisbon

“Plenty of energy, enthusiasm, good clear guidance on how to make the scene ‘deliver results’ without killing the improviser… Ryan’s enthusiasm for improv is infectious.”

James, Brighton

“Thank you so much for passing your writing knowledge onto me. I learned a lot and had a lot of fun too.”

Larissa, Amsterdam,

“I thoroughly enjoyed the workshop. I learned how beautiful authenticity is, with such little moments as sharing your breakfast. Being in the moment is so amazing to see and to feel.”

Laura, Amsterdam

“I’ve learned so much from you and thank you for giving me that nudge to get out of my comfort zone.”

Imaan, Amsterdam

“Your Taking It Easy session helped me relax more into the truth of a scene and let it grow more organically instead of pushing too hard to make it funny or dramatic. I loved that you were really clear about what you wanted us to get and how the exercises played into the scene work we did later. I really got a lot from one short session.”

Andrew, Brighton
