Kevin Gillese and Arlen Konopaki: SCRATCH (Canada)

Two actors. Dozens of characters. Multiple storylines. No scripts. This fast-paced improve show has stunned audiences across America and Europe . You've never seen anything like it. Itching for something hilarious? Scratch

Scratch first fell from the heavens in a blaze of white light at the Edmonton Fringe festival in 2005. Originally featuring Stephen Kent and Arlen Konopaki (Kevin Gillese was the official swing member) the show was a hit. However when Steve was offered a dream gig out east at Stratford Kevin stepped forward to fill his handsome shoes. Since then Kevin and Arlen have been work-shopping the show, continuing to study improv with masters from around the planet and touring Scratch all over the country. Highlights so far include: stunning the stoners at Vancouver's International Improv Festival, getting NOW Magazine's Pick of the Fringe and EYE Magazine's Best of the Fringe in Toronto, and winning Improv Idol to be crowned champions of improv in Winnipeg.

“The best improv show I’ve ever seen.” - Vue Magazine

“…energetic, surprising, filled with sharp jokes. Scratch delivers on all counts" – CBC, Canada

“...hospitalization worthy hilarity” – TORONTO SUN, Canada

“If laughter is the best medicine, prepare to overdose” – THE EYE, Canada

Show duration: 1 hour.

    I'm itching for: a good night out with my lovely boyfriend, a great night out, indulge in an expensive meal, a good night's sleep in a posh hotel, and a giggle or two along the way.

    I'm itching for: a good night out with my lovely husband, a night away from the kids, an excuse to get dolled up, a chance to indulge in an expensive meal, a good night's sleep in a posh hotel, and a giggle or two along the way.
