Gravitas: Comedy Inspired by Cinema

Live comedy inspired by real cinema: prestigious, potent, pretentious.

ABOUT

It's Oscar season, baby.

In Gravitas, some of Montreal's best comedians will improvise scenes inspired by prestigious films.

2025 was a great year for cinema:

  • Marty Supreme.

  • One Battle After Another.

  • That War of the Worlds movie with Ice Cube.

We're here to honour these films, live on stage at Montreal Improv, with all the bombastic acting and melodrama you'd expect.

We're gonna make you proud, Mr. Scorsese.
