Steen Raskopoulos - Steen Improvises With Friends

This is improv at its finest. Comedian and Improviser Steen Raskopoulos is a master at the form, and tonight he leads an ad-libbed adventure alongside Tom Cardy, Abby Howells, Broden Kelly, Ben Russell, Brynley Stent and Amanda Buckley.

The cast was in fine form for a Monday night, there wasn’t a weak link among them, each commanding the stage like they’d been in an improv troupe for decades. While the work of Tom, Abby, Broden, Steen, Brynley and Amanda was stellar and can’t be ignored, special mention needs to be given to Ben Russell. He’s managed the perfect balance of heightening scenes while giving space for other performers, tonight we all got to witness an expert at work. 

With so many improvised scenes coming so fast, it was a delight to see no momentum drop, thanks to the quick thinking of the group, new scenes were brought to the stage before any others stuck around too long. 

It’s a fun night out, and is definitely one that can’t be ignored this festival.
