Mile End Improv’s “Fest Of The Fest” Presents: Films In Focus
On Saturday, June 8 at 8:30pm, the hit improv comedy show FILMS IN FOCUS returns to Mile End Improv as part of the 2024 Montreal Fringe Festival!
Created by Andy Assaf & Jason Grimmer in 2018, FILMS IN FOCUS has been acclaimed by the Montreal Gazette as "one of the funniest shows in Montreal"
Six seasoned performers improvise 'classic' scenes from completely made up films with titles suggested by the audience only to have their performances savaged by "esteemed" critic, Benji Manking. Action films, horror flicks, rom-coms, cult classics & award-winning festival fare, just because these films don't exist doesn't mean they can't be critiqued.

A collaborative practice session for improvisers / Every Sunday at 11am!
Our workshop is a lively, engaging experience that leads directly into our show. Every Sunday, you can join us to practice scenes and learn about story-based improv, guided by a variety of great teachers. Sunday 4-6, always free.
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.
The M BAR welcomes you to its wonderful space every WEDNESDAY NIGHT from 6pm to 7:30pm, for a fun, engaging, and interactive introduction to the skills of improvised comedy.
Whether you're a seasoned performer or just curious about improv, our workshops offer a no-commitment opportunity to explore and enjoy the art of improvisation.
Come meet new people, learn new skills, and share an evening of laughs with us in a relaxed, and supportive environment. Only $5 per session – see you there!
