THE IMPROV EXPRESS (28Feb-1Mar 2026)
Full steam ahead in this back-to-back weekend trail of improv shows!
Spontaneous storytelling goes off the rails in this rapid 2-day event that follows a scenic trail of classic improv acts! From short-form comedy to long-form drama and everything else in between, this 20-hour train ride promises to cover the full length of what improv can be on stage!
As this train departs a month before the Manila Improv Festival 2026, we'll also feature Singaporean delegates in the Open Preview shows! Come support those representing the Little Red Dot, and give feedback that they can use to fine-tune their sets before their MIF26 performances!

Agenda
-
Pipipapiprov
Born from The Improv Hub’s 2026 residency, 'Vang / Echoes' is a study in narrative resonance. Each scene leaves behind a ghost—a lingering thread that pulls the next story into existence, creating a mesmerising chain of connected ripples.
-
Beard Mamas
BEARD MAMAS weaves a high-speed tapestry of overlapping worlds and recurring characters where no scene survives past the two-minute mark. Join them as fleeting moments collide and merge in a breathless race against the ticking clock.
-
Gooblegangers
GOBBLEGANGERS present 'The Living Room,' an intimate long-form format where organic conversations spark a flurry of "if-this-is-true" scenes that flow back and forth into dialogue. Their show leverages the deep vulnerability and playful chemistry of a troupe built on a year of shared trust, inviting the audience into a fluid, joyfully unpredictable reality.
