Montreal Improv is pleased to present Summer Fling, a five day mini-festival featuring improv workshops and shows.
About this event
A favourite of the old Montreal Improv, Troubadour returns!
A musical guest will begin the evening by performing a selection of original songs. A group of Montreal’s best improvisors will then use the musician’s lyrics and banter as inspiration for their scenes.
This months Troubadour is a Trobairitz, named Avery Jane. Avery is a singer songwriter influenced heavily by jazz, acoustic folk and neo-soul from her love of comedy and theatre her lyrics are witty and honest. After relocating to Montreal from Victoria BC, she performed solo for the first time professionally in 2019, then releasing her debut single "April" in 2020.
