Wellington Improvisation Troupe
Formed in 2003 by the players of micetro, Winner of the Fringe Best Comedy Award 2003, The Wellington Improvisation Troupe (WIT) is Wellington’s not-for-profit, community-based improvisational theatre group. WIT performs and teaches the skills of improvisational theatre at community venues around the Wellington region.
Theatre is made up on the spot by some of Wellington’s leading improvisers and courageous newcomers alike, based on suggestions from the audience. WIT players share a love of storytelling and work together as a team to inspire the audience. WIT theatre is sometimes serious, often hilarious and always totally unpredictable. In 2008 we aim to restablish WIT as a formidable brand in the Wellington arts and comedy community. Check out our upcoming shows!
We welcome new sponsors and members at all levels of experience. Contact us if you would like to support WIT or become our newest member!
