PGraph: The Improvised Play
PGraph Presents: New Works
(USA)
A play in ANY style inspired right before it happens on stage? The four members of Parallelogramophonograph will do that and then some in New Works: A fully improvised one-act play in which the genre, acting style, themes, characters, and plot are inspired by the audience each night. A sweltering Southern Gothic drama? A witty 1970s buddy cop caper? A futuristic sci-fi dystopian epic? You’ll have to wait and see.
About PGraph
Parallelogramophonograph (Kareem Badr, Kaci Beeler, Roy Janik, and Valerie Ward) has been performing together for over 20 years and 1500 shows (and counting!). Fiercely dedicated to the craft and art of improvised theatre, PGraph has held a weekly show in Austin since 2006. Intrigued by the challenge of telling fantastic, fully-improvised stories together as an ensemble, PGraph spent years developing original formats and studying scripted theatre, improv, and storytelling. They've toured the country and the world performing and teaching their unique brand of improv with ensemble appearances in over 65 cities in the US, Canada, Australia, Europe, and the UK.
Renowned for their theatricality, playfulness, and hive-mind-like ensemble, their goal with every show is to push both themselves and the art of improvisation to new and dizzying heights while taking the audience along for a joyous ride.
PGraph regularly performs at The Hideout Theatre in Austin, Texas. Their book on narrative improv - Do It Now - is for sale on their website as well as digitally on Amazon.
