Le Grand Yes And! is Montreal’s festival of unscripted brilliance, a joyful celebration of improv in all its forms. From fast-paced shortform to poetic longform, musical madness to genre-hopping experiments, we bring together performers and audiences for five days of spontaneous theatre, comedy, and connection. Whether you're a lifelong improviser or totally new to the scene, you'll find something to laugh at, cheer for, and be inspired by.
Our show is a natural extension of the workshop. A regular rotation of some of Montreal’s most talented improvisers always perform, including Sandi Armstrong, Alain Mercieca, Heidi Lynne Weeks, Maité Sinave, Mariana Vial, Adalia Pemberton, Solly Krygier-Paine, Kristina Guevarra, Mason Persaud, Shanthony Exum, Nicky Fournier and Jeremy Lewis . On top of having seasoned improvisers, we also have the new birds that walk in for the first time and steal the show. You could just literally show up and get thrown in the fire of a live show with no script! It has led to many amazing walk-in, home run hitters and creates an awesome “anything can happen” spirit, which is the backbone to improv.
Always entertaining, Sunday Night Improv promises a good time for audiences who are welcome to contribute to the show through their suggestions and voting.
