the PROJECTproject
COMBUSTIONfestival
 
 
MAY 26-31, 2008
For one hot week in May, PROJECTproject is setting the brand-spankin’-new Comedy Bar (945b Bloor St. W.) ablaze with a festival of improvised theatre, experiments and large-scale mischief.  The festival will feature 5 programs, each inspired by a method of combustion:  

FAST | shortform improv
SLOW | longform improv (not that the speed of it need be slow)
COMPLETE | heavily structured improvisation and loose sketch
INCOMPLETE | home for wandering souls; new configurations of people; forms-in-development
SMOULDERING | radical/non-traditional improvisation
