late night knife fight
Monthly at BATS
We'll bring the knives; you bring the judgement.
The monthly improv battle where three teams face off in a fight for glory, honour, and the audience's favour. The winner returns in the headline spot next month; the losers wail and gnash their teeth.
The first rule of Knife Fight is... BOOK EARLY
Tickets $22 F / $18 C / $20 G6+
Want more? Catch Locomotive's show ONE ACT/PLAY at BATS, or any of the many other improv shows at BATS Theatre.
Making New Work
Now officially a Locomotive initiative, Late Night Knife Fight is a joyful proving ground for improvisors creating new work and ensembles, offering development, coaching, and collaboration across companies and styles. An opportunity to catch the next big thing in improv before it takes flight, work developed at LNKF has gone on to full seasons and festivals, with The National Average, Two Dope Teens (Best Improv Nelson Fringe 2018), The History Boy (Nominated Outstanding Performer Fringe 2021), Magnus Steele, and more in development.
