Two Parrots and a Sandcastle
Two Parrots and a Sandcastle was named by accident as the title of three improv shows featuring Megan Furniss, Cape Town’s longest running improviser. On each night she will be joined by another fellow improviser and they will perform an hour of two-hander improv, with absolutely nothing planned and where anything can happen.
Megan Furniss brought TheatreSports to Cape Town in 1993, and she has been improvising anywhere for anyone, ever since.
In the last four years, influenced by exciting improv people and groups on her travels, she has been experimenting with different formats of improv. Last year she tried out a series of one-woman and two person shows and she loved them, and so did her audiences at the Alexander Bar and Theatre, the perfect intimate space for trying out anything risky or strange.
This time around she starts off the year with only three shows, and three different creative partners, Tandi Buchan, Leon Clingman and Brett Anderson.
Following the style of long form improv, the performers will (possibly) get a few suggestions from the audience, and then just make it up, for an hour. If you are looking for the perfect creative kick start to your January, this is probably it.
