SUMMARY:Theatre: Wednesday Night Improv: March Triple Bill
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday Night Improv’s monthly show continues with a triple bill packed with quick wit\, bold characters\, and stories made up on the spot. \nJoin us for a midweek comedy boost featuring three of Bristol’s sharpest improv acts – each one creating a brand-new show right before your eyes\, all inspired by audience suggestions. \n[1] FAIRLY NON-BIO\nIn Fairly Non-Bio\, a panel of filmmakers at a biopic film’s premiere discuss and dissect the scenes of their film\, along the way discovering that maybe it’s not quite as good as they’d hoped. Reality is temporary; film is permanent. But did any of that really happen? \nFairly Non-Bio is the brainchild of Cathal Dowd\, drawing together improvisers from across Bristol\, including performers from The Groundhogs\, I Don’t Know What You’ll Do This Summer\, Beansville\, and more. After successful launch performances at the Bristol Improv Theatre in 2025\, Fairly Non-Bio continue to perform regularly across Bristol. \n[2] BIRDWATCHERS\nBirdwatchers are a two-prov team made up of Anna Kemp (This is Your Musical) and Paige Tummons (Jazz Police). In their original “epilogue” format\, Birdwatchers explore the present and past of 2 characters reminiscing together. The exploratory flashbacks combine comedic elements\, heartfelt scenes\, and absolutely ridiculous moments that are sure to make you laugh and think that maybe your own family isn’t that weird after all. \nBirdwatchers have performed extensively in Bristol and won the Improv Cagematch in 2019. \n[3] PRESSURE COOKER: THE IMPROVISED RESTAURANT SHOW\nPressure Cooker whisks you into a fictional restaurant where a dynamic ensemble brings the chefs\, customers\, and kitchen chaos to life. Using your stories as ingredients\, our performers cook up hilarious\, unpredictable scenes on the spot. From meltdowns to menu mayhem\, it’s comedy served hot and fast. \nWinners of the 2025 Bristol Improv Gauntlet | “Pure Comedic Alchemy” — Bristol 24/7 \n—\nWhether you’re a seasoned comedy fan or just curious about what happens when performers make it all up as they go\, this is a perfect night to dive into Bristol’s thriving improv scene. Expect laughter\, surprises\, and something completely different – every single time.\n— \nPart of the Wednesday Night Improv series – We’re on the second Wednesday of every month!

SUMMARY:Jazz: Joe Steels Group
DESCRIPTION:Guitarist Joe Steels is based in Appleby in Westmorland and has assembled a band featuring some of the best players in the North East. \nExpect shimmering harmonies\, intricate lines\, and an instinct for space that lets every note breathe. Joe’s playing moves between lyrical storytelling and fearless improvisation\, drawing on influences from modern jazz\, folk and ambient soundscapes. \nTouring to promote their second album\, ‘A Blue Patch’ draws together a selection of narratives taken from various aspects of his life and is more broadly a commentary on his belief in music as a vital part of what it is to be human;  the euphoric moments\, the times that test us and just simply being. Powerful melodies derived from folk and Celtic themes metamorphose with jazz harmony and rhythm in a fusion of genres that is full of excitement\, optimism and heartfelt connectivity. \n“Wonderful!” – Nikki Iles\n“…Joe’s flowing lines a thing of beauty” – Bebop Spoken Here\n“the standout act” – Simply Jazz Talk \n
