Words Beggar / RHIIF'd For Your Pleasure
Words Beggar
(Japan)
From Japanese clown Oshow comes Words Beggar — a world-travelled, word-hungry improv clown show where the audience holds the power. You don’t just watch the performance, you build it: teaching Oshow the words he will use to play games, spin stories, and shape the character he becomes in real time. Having performed across 13 cities in 10 countries and in multiple languages, no two shows are ever the same — because no two audiences ever are. What emerges is spontaneous, playful, and completely unpredictable: a clown made entirely out of the words you give him.
RHIIF'd for Your Pleasure
(International Ensemble)
Sometimes a line just hits. If you've seen improv before, you know the ones. The notable quotables that stick with you long after the show is over. Usually they'd just live on as memories, but this show takes them somewhere new. A cast of RHIIF familiar faces and VIPs will take lines and quotes from throughout the festival and weave them into brand new scenes. Fun, loose, silly, and full of heart, it's a celebration of what makes RHIIF great and the perfect punch of joy to close out another edition.
A show devised, cast, and put together by festival stalwarts Henry Bowler, Nora Macleese and Ben Macpherson.
