What is the 24 Hour Improv Marathon?
On the 14 & 15th of October, our brave improv comedians will step on the stage and start 24 hours of non-stop improv, performing 22 shows across the entire 24 Hour Improv Marathon. From classic Room for Improvment shows to new shows created purely for the marathon, there will be plenty of laughs, plenty of tired bodies and hopefully plenty of money raised for a great cause.This year we hope to raise $5000 to support the Black Dog Institute. Mental health is something we are Rising Arts take very seriously, with many of our performers, creatives and the wider community having struggled with their mental health. With an issue that is so close to our heart, we hope you'll support us in raising funds and awareness for mental health.
We'll soon be introducing you to our many talented performers and the shows they'll be performing in, so make sure to follow along our journey here.
Thank you to our Sponsors
