AIF - Dynamite Dynamics

  • Covert Theatre 51 Mackelvie Street Auckland, Auckland, 1021 New Zealand (map)

What makes an improv scene truly powerful? Is it the high-energy punchlines, the fast-paced action, the relentless comedy? Or is it the quiet moments—the pause before the punchline, the tension in the silence, the weight of a single glance?

Join internationally acclaimed improviser Stacey Hallal and a hand-selected cast as they explore the full spectrum of power in improv—from explosive dynamite energy to the magnetic pull of stillness. This unique workshop-to-show experience will challenge expectations, push boundaries, and reveal how true power isn’t just in volume or speed, but in the choices we make on stage.

Expect the unexpected. Feel the shift. Witness the full DYNA-mic range of improv in action.


Praise for Improverished: “What unfolds is a series of side-splitting hijinks… that is both highly comedic and heartwarming” - Theatreview
