The Sticking Place presents<br />
UNCORKED –<br />
THE MIDSUMMER<br />
IMPROVATHON<br />
A 26-hour, non-stop, improvised soap opera made up of 13<br />
two-hour episodes. Starting at 8pm on Saturday night and<br />
finishing at 10pm the following day, you can drop in at any<br />
time to catch the unfolding story or come and relish the<br />
whole 26 hours. The action is entirely improvised and takes<br />
its performers through sleep deprivation resulting in a wild,<br />
joyous and anarchic form of live performance featuring live<br />
music. From the team behind Showstopper! The Improvised<br />
Musical, this celebration of spontaneity will involve<br />
acclaimed performers from Ireland, the UK and further afield.<br />
“This isn’t really theatre. It’s blood sports. It’s absolutely<br />
incredible.”<br />
