LiF 02 - Stephen Longstaffe - Shakespeare on the Spot - Muprov Musings 096

Hal Munger interviews Stephen Longstaffe a solo improviser who will be performing Shakespeare on the spot. Stephen and Hal discus all things improv, from inspirations, ideas and everything in between. Catch their show as part of LIF 2026 hosted by festival partners the Unity theatre. The world clearly hasn’t enough Shakespeare, so this solo show improvises some more from audience suggestions. Your host (former university Shakespeare lecturer and current idiot) will transform whatever the Liverpool muses bring into new iambic speeches and dialogues by some of the bard's most famous characters. It could get silly. No asps, daggers, or skulls are permitted in the venue, but feel free to bring another hitherto unknown Shakespeare prop along! Who: Stephen Longstaffe What: Shakespeare on the Spot Where: Unity 1 When: 6:00pm - Thursday 7th of May
