ImproEM Rumänien : Polen / Schweden : Griechenland

In the organizer's words:

The ImproEM is the European Championship in improvisational theater, in which 18 improv teams will compete in an international competition in April and May 2024. It will take place in Munich as a cultural supporting program for the UEFA EURO 2024. A battle like a soccer match. Only here the audience decides who goes through to the final. In 3 preliminary rounds, we will determine the strongest teams for the final round in May.

Improvisational theater offers the audience a unique and thrilling experience, as each performance is completely spontaneous and improvised. Everything happens in real time, with the actors reacting to each other without a script or unexpected twists. The ImproEM promises humorous moments, international flair and the finest entertainment.

Teams from Belgium, Bulgaria, Germany, England, Estonia, France, Greece, Italy, Liechtenstein, Austria, Poland, Portugal, Republic of Ireland, Romania, Sweden, Switzerland, Spain and Turkey will compete against each other. The championship will be framed by a varied program, shows for schools, workshops and other activities for cultural exchange.

In addition to funding from the Football & Culture Foundation and the German government, ImproEM is also supported by the Department of Education and Sport, the City of Munich's Department of Culture and numerous stages in the city. Special thanks go to Fritz Kola, München Ticket, Erima and Flemings Hotels, who are also supporting the project. The European Championship is organized by Improtheaterfestival München e.V. (non-profit association).

The shows will be held in easy English.
