Garry Trotter & The Philosopher’s Whatchamacallit

The Improvisors Present:

Garry Trotter And The Philosopher’s Whatchamacallit!


2 - 6 March at 7:30pm.
Circa Two, Circa Theatre, 1 Taranaki St Book: 04 801 7992 Tickets: $18/15/12 www.fringe.org.nz

What the Harry Potter books don't tell you but The Improvisors will is that New Zealand has its very own school for wizardry and witchcraft. But like everything else in this country it doesn't get the good press it deserves.

That's about to change.

Join Garry Trotter and his chums from Sheepforts School of Wizardry, Wichcraft and Agricultural Technology to solve magical mysteries, meet mythical beasts and bring the cows in for evening milking.

You'd be a muggle to miss it!

Garry Trotter and the Philosopher’s Whatchamacallit is the first of five anniversary productions planned in 2010 for the celebration of The Improvisors 20th Anniversary Season. Starting 1990 at Circa Theatre, in 20 years The Improvisors have achieved over 40 shows, covering everything from musicals to multimedia, Shakespeare to Soap Opera and of course Theatresports and were awarded BEST COMEDY at the 2009 Fringe Festival.
