Swipe Night Improv Tuesdays with Old Friends, Ricky! and a Jam!
Tuesday, 25 November 2025
19:45 - 22:00
Three shows and an improv jam that's open to everyone, all for free on stage at East London's Shoreditch Balls, 10 minutes from Old Street.
Tickets are free and reservable here!
Ricky!
Ricky! were Hoopla's 2024 house team, and they've stayed and played together ever since. Members of this fast-paced, high-energy troupe have appeared on BBC Three, BBC Radio 4 and BBC Radio Scotland.

Your hosts! We perform our show Something Just Happened, or possibly something else - either way, it's likely to feature the relationships you want to see, and the relationships you may rather you hadn't.
Old Friends
Inspired by the Stephen Sondheim show Old Friends, which is a collage of characters from his greatest shows, and by our love of the improv game Hot Spot, Old Friends is a character and music led show that follows a gentle narrative thread. It’s a deep dive into characters who seem larger than life and also the person next door, showing the infinite complexity of the human experience. Even the seemingly most mundane characters carry a universe inside of them, accompanied by their own song.
The Jam!
Genuinely once described by someone as 'the best improv jam in the south of England' our jam is typically made up of two or three person scenes. For your inspiration in these, you can either take an emotion from our patented 'emotometer' or receive whimsical words from a sweet treat.
