"I've never felt so involved in a show, or had so much fun!" – Audience Member

Participation Players seeks to combine the thrill of short form audience participation with long form storytelling. With players from around the country, we seek to use the opportunity to unite in Auckland, and spread good fun for all.

No Frills 
Improv Taranaki (with Franzi & Phill)

No Frills (with Franzi & Phill) is an improvised play, performed by just two actors playing multiple characters. One story takes place over the course of the entire show; it’s a high-wire balancing act that has endless possibilities.

Franzi & Phill are passionate about capturing the shared human experience and the rollercoaster of emotions that comes with it. In No Frills, they delve into the complexities and contradictions of life, portraying moments that are both deeply relatable and wonderfully unexpected. Just like life, each performance is a unique journey where you never know what's around the corner.

Improv Taranaki was established in 2023 and is the home of improvised theatre in the Taranaki region. We have a small but vibrant community that comes together with a shared goal of creating experiences of collective joy.
