It came from Beyond the Script - Auckland Improv Festival

Experience the allure of mid-century horror films brought to life on stage in our cinematic, improvised horror-comedy. Join a charming cast as they navigate the suspense of a small town gone awry. A must-see, accessible improv show for film and theatre enthusiasts alike—prepare for thrills, laughs, and a unique theatrical journey!

ICFBTS is directed by Malcolm Morrison, a pioneer in improv show creation, as an exploration in how to effectively portray horror in minimalist theatre. Powered by cutting-edge open-source software, specially developed to elevate the art of improv, 'It Came From Beyond the Script’' promises an unforgettable journey.

"There hasn’t yet been quite a show like It Came From Beyond The Script, although in future, I’ll be disappointed there aren’t." - Wellyott.com

Our fully licensed bar opens one hour before the show begins so come and have a drink before the show.

No audience member is brought up on stage, so you can relax and enjoy the show from the comfort of your seat.

The Covert Theatre, home of improv comedy, is community in spirit and professional in standards. With workshops and shows every night of the week there is something for everyone. Be sure to check out www.coverttheatre.com
