easylaughs - Teacher & Me improv show
2025-05-16 20:00 - 22:00 | Plein Theater, Sajetplein 39, Amsterdam, North Holland, 1091 GC, Netherlands
easylaughs Presents: Teacher & Me + Tarantino Improv Night📅 Date: Friday, May 16, 2025🕗 Time: 20:00 – 22:00📍 Location: Plein Theater, Sajetplein 39, 1091 GC Amsterdam, Netherlands🎟️ Tickets Required – Limited Seating

Join us at Plein Theater on May 16th for a night of unscripted magic and gripping storytelling, all delivered live and in English by the improvisers of easylaughs.

🎭 20:00 – Teacher & Me
In this unique showcase, easylaughs flips the script: it’s the students who take center stage—with their teachers at their side.
Our community is full of passionate, talented improv students, and for this special show, we’ve created dynamic duos by pairing them with experienced easylaughs teachers. Each pair will perform a short-formatted piece, co-created and discovered in real time, drawing on the chemistry and creative energy of the moment.
Among the exciting pairings for this evening is Steven Morgan performing with Nandita Dhir. This fresh duo brings together Steven’s sharp theatrical instincts and Nandita’s emerging voice as a playful, imaginative performer. Having recently completed easylaughs’ basics and musical improv courses, Nandita steps into the spotlight with her teacher for a once-in-a-lifetime improv experience—no script, no safety net, just connection and surprise.
Each performance will be distinct, ranging from heartfelt to hilarious, clever to chaotic—and everything in between. Whether you’re new to improv or a seasoned fan, you’ll get a unique glimpse into the collaborative spirit that drives the easylaughs community.

🎬 21:00 – Tarantino (Improvised)
Lights. Camera. Mayhem.
Strap in for the second half of the night as our ensemble cast brings you the easylaughs improvised Tarantino play—a wild, cinematic journey into a world full of tough-talking antiheroes, cryptic monologues, uneasy standoffs, and sudden explosions of emotion and violence (the fake kind, don’t worry).
In this fully improvised homage to Quentin Tarantino’s iconic style, every line drips with tension, every choice matters, and every character has something to hide. Will you witness a twisted revenge plot, an absurd criminal deal gone wrong, or an unexpected alliance forged in blood and banter?
We won’t know until we step on stage—and neither will you.

Come play improv theatre in English and kick off your Friday evening with laughter, creativity and new people. This drop-in workshop is open to everyone, whether you are trying improv for the very first time or you have played before and want to stay sharp.
You do not need acting experience, and you do not need perfect English. Many people join us for the first time each week, alongside regular players who keep coming back. The atmosphere is open, playful and supportive, with a real focus on having fun together.
During the session, you can expect:

Meeting internationals and Dutch players who enjoy playing in English
Fun and accessible improv games inspired by shows like Whose Line Is It Anyway and De Lama’s
Clear introductions to improv principles like listening, accepting ideas and playing together
Plenty of laughter and a few moments where you surprise yourself
A relaxed, social vibe rather than anything competitive or performative

We play from 20:00 to 22:00. Doors open between 19:50 and 20:00, and you enter together via the side entrance on Troelstralaan. After the workshop, many people head to O’Leary’s nearby for a drink and a chat.
Sign up by adding your name via https://bit.ly/iudropin. If you can no longer attend, please remember to remove yourself so someone else can join.
The workshop works on a Pay What You Thought It Was Worth basis. Suggested donation is €10 to €20, but you are always welcome regardless of what you can pay. Contributions help cover the room and the professional trainer giving up their Friday evening.
