Smells Like a Song: An Improvised Musical

  • Family and kids
  • Comedy

Smells Like A Song sees the multi-talented Impro Melbourne players pulling an entire improvised musical out of nothing but thin air and audience suggestions.

Each member of the audience receives a rose and at any point, during the show they can toss it onstage with a cry of ‘Smells Like a Song!’ Cue the players to stop dead in their tracks and belt out a show stopper. With a live musician accompanying the proceedings, Smells Like A Song is a glorious melodic melting pot of styles and genres. A night of musical mayhem that celebrates the very best of improvisation, comedy and Theatre.

This show is PG but may have some swearing and mature themes.

Impro Melbourne are happy to work with you to accommodate your accessibility needs, so please contact them via email or phone.
