Wayward Improv

Wayward Improvised Theatre is Ottawa's newest home for theatrical improv!​ We showcase many different kinds of improv: short form (games like you might see on Whose Line is it Anyway?), long form (longer scenes that feature relationship and character work) or narrative (a full-length play made up on the spot). We host and produce improv bi-monthly at Arts Court in our fair nation's capital.
