Overview

Showstopper! The Improvised Musical is a family show in which The Showstoppers create a new musical comedy live, built from suggestions offered by the audience, at Cambridge Theatre in Covent Garden.

The Showstoppers build a brand-new musical comedy in front of the audience, using suggestions from the audience as the starting point. Whatever is proposed, from a familiar hit transplanted into a hospital to Sondheim set in the Sahara, the company turns it into sung and danced entertainment on the spot. Because the material is created in the moment, each performance unfolds differently.

The production is a family show staged at Cambridge Theatre on Earlham Street, in Covent Garden. The Showstoppers have performed the act for fifteen years at the Edinburgh Fringe, and it has also been broadcast as a BBC Radio 4 series and run in the West End. The show won an Olivier Award for Best Entertainment and Family Show in 2016.

Matilda The Musical is also associated with this production, which is improvised throughout.
