Rewrite Jam

Montreal Improv: 3716 Notre-Dame St W, Montreal, Quebec H4C 1P7
organized by Yes And Mtl

Get ready to unleash your creativity at the Rewrite Jam, where the stage is yours to rewrite the rules of TV and film—on the spot! In this one-of-a-kind improv experience, you’ll jump into the action as directors, writers, and actors team up to create brand-new movies and TV shows!

The jam kicks off with a set of directors/writers pitching their wildest ideas (based on the audience’s suggestion), and the actors bring them to life. But here’s the twist—at any moment, the directors can ring a bell and flip the script, taking the scene in an entirely new direction. And when the scene wraps, the actors don’t just take a bow—they become the writers, ready to dream up the next blockbuster hit.

This concept was originally created by Kim Alu at NYC’s People’s Improv Theater (PIT) who generously granted permission to bring it to Montreal. Now, it’s your turn to step into the spotlight and see where your imagination can take you!
