Solo Impro Shows

One Man Crime Wave

One Man Crime Wave

Peter More will create a crime-ridden tale guided by the audience who will help decide the nature of the story, the style it’s told in and who we follow.

This show has previously been performed at ImproFest Gothenburg and calls on Peter’s earlier work with improvised shows such as Mørdsäga (Scandinavian crime drama), Film Noir, Coen Brothers, Tarantino, James Bond, and Take One his all-genre solo improvised show. Plus his love of crime and espionage books and movies.

Take One

Take One
Take One

Take one movie genre from the audience. Take one actor. Make him create a movie in that genre on stage on his own… in one take.

Take One is a solo show inspired by Peter’s passion for movie genres. The audience selects a genre (or two) they would like to see and over 45 minutes, Peter will improvise a whole story in that style providing all of the characters, special effects and the director’s touches.

Take One has been performed in The UK, The Netherlands and Belgium. Peter also teaches a workshop on solo work.

Reclassi(c)fied

For short slots, or as part of another show, Peter will get from the audience a classic movie scene and also a style completely different from the original version of that scene to reimagine it in. Examples so far have included…

  • The restaurant scene from When Harry met Sally as if from an Irish Gangster movie.
  • The “I’ll be back” scene from Terminator as a Teen comedy.

The Library

Audiences are encouraged to bring their favourite or current books or just odd books they happen to have lying around. A random passage from this book is used to inspire scenes and monologues until it’s time for the next book.

About Solo Performing

Peter started performing solo as an experiment and found he loved the challenge. The main challenge is how to bounce ideas around with other players when there ae no other players? The answer is to allow the performance to be truly be a discovery; to surprise yourself.

Peter teaches a workshop on solo work and has plans for a course.
