Tomorrow's show & a newsletter in a newsletter 🪆
We have a 🪆matryoshka🪆 situation going on in this email.
Hey there,
Are you having a great weekend? I hope you do!
In this email I have a fun little invite for you (for tomorrow), an overview of workshops (useful, I hope) and a newsletter in a newsletter.
I guess we have a 🪆matryoshka🪆 situation going on…
Tomorrow: Community Night
Flock & Friends: Community Night
WORKSHOP SHOWCASE
The students of How To Play With Anyone will show on stage what they have learned in… How to play with anyone.
Anyone in the audience (with and without improv experience) is invited to raise their hand to join. Maybe you? The students will showcase how they have learned to make any scene partner look SO good.
LOCAL TALENT: BACKGAMMON by Ela&Yala
An Iranian and a Greek sit down to play a game of Backgammon. What follows is a slow-burn show full of personal stories, traditions, gossip, family values and strong emotions dipped in traditional music and seasoned with Mediterranean and Middle-Eastern spices. Leave all prejudice at the door!
This show will take place in the Flock Studio, where we have built a mini theatre with 35 seats. Before and after, we serve drinks from the -also newly built- foldout bar.
Sunday 22 September 19:30-22:00
Tickets: € 10,-
Flock Studio at Treehouse NDSM, T.T. Neveritaweg 57M1 in Amsterdam
(this location can be reached through 1 flight of stairs)
You are warmly invited to join us tomorrow! Get a ticket here.

Gael writes about dogs, boats, religion and improv.
Next to the Flock Talk you are reading right now (thank you!), Gael also writes his own newsletter. In the latest one, he talks about improv festivals, his arctic residency, the value of social media, and one of his latest international improv projects:
Our show covers the topic of religion, seen through the lens of our personal history being raised respectively Christian, Muslim and atheist. Going in and out of scenes to share these personal stories about our upbringing, it combines fun and light with things we sometimes never shared with anyone before.
You can read this post, and the rest of the newsletter here.
Enjoy your weekend, see you soon!
