The Improvisors Present - HOLMES ALONE!

He’s clueless… and only YOU can help!

Audiences get a show that is uniquely their own when master improviser Greg Ellis spins a madcap tale of mystery, melodrama and murder, finally revealing “the truth” about Sherlock Holmes.  Using suggestions, obstacles and ‘clues’ provided by the audience, each performance is a one-of-a-kind theatrical tightrope walk, never before seen, and never to be repeated.  

 Alone on stage Greg must populate Victorian London using only a devilish imagination, a lightning-quick wit and a homemade degree in English History. Juggling a colourful cast and a convoluted story Greg needs all the help he can get, so willing audience members may find themselves deputised as fellow detectives or interrogated as suspicious characters.

A down-the-rabbit-hole version of the super sleuth we think we know, told in the uniquely interactive style of one of Wellington’s most talented entertainers.

::::

With twenty years as performer and company director of The Improvisors, the capital’s premier corporate entertainment company, Greg Ellis is arguably Wellington’s most-seen actor. Tens of thousands of people at functions, events and theatrical shows of all kinds have roared with laughter over the years as Greg and his team brought comedy chaos to their party.

Improv has taken Greg all over the world, as a professional comedian and Theatresports athlete. He has represented New Zealand  at both Commonwealth and World Cup level.

Holmes Alone! is Greg’s personal contribution to The Improvisors 20th anniversary season, and follows his nationally toured improv shows Geezers, and Antiques Roadshow.
