Scriptless Junior

Get raucous as two teams of expert improvisors go head-to-head in a fast-paced improv showdown for the young and young at heart!

Formerly known as The Early Early Late Show, Scriptless Junior lets the audience decide who takes the crown as The Court Jesters tackle tricky technical challenges set by the all-powerful Master of Ceremonies. Will you switch sides each round, or stick with your favourite colour all night?

For 35 years, The Court Theatre has entertained Christchurch with improvised theatre in shows like the Christchurch Theatresports™ Competition and Scared Scriptless. This junior edition, performed by some of our most skillful improvisors, is packed with interaction making it the perfect introduction to the world of improv for young audiences.

Scriptless Junior is recommended for 8–12-year-olds (and their grown-ups).

“This is a slick, fast paced show, brilliantly executed by the quick witted cast” – Ruth Agnew, Flat City Field Notes

“Scriptless Junior is the perfect family activity, I think there’s nothing more beautiful than children and adults laughing together – though we both know they’re laughing at different things” – Caitlin Penhey, Court Jester
