Corporate Entertainment & Training
Since 1990 we have been Wellington's premier permanent corporate theatre company.
We excite, we invigorate and we entertain.
We have worked in partnership with most of New Zealand's major employers - promoting them to clients, educating staff, facilitating them to creatively embrace industry issues and celebrating successes with them.
In over 25 years there isn’t much that The Improvisors haven’t done. Our performers come from a wide variety of backgrounds and that allows us to tackle anything. We’ve not only customised entertainment but created training videos, written and directed ads, created theatre pieces, and provided the talent to make it all shine.

He is one of the original founders and artistic directors of The Improvisors. Known for a life time of film and television roles, Ian is also one of the country's most experienced improv actors.
Tim is also an experienced trainer in communication and presentation skills.
As a screen actor, Tim’s highlights include the grieving father, For Good; the crooked Councillor in Larry Parr’s Fracture, the misogynistic bloke in Adam Steven’s Beautiful - for which he won Best Actor at the Drifting Cloud International Short Film Festival – the Crown Prosecutor in the award winning Until Proven Innocent, Pop Preston in Home by Christmas, and in the last year Tim played Field Marshall Haig in War News and the Graham Henry in the Tele-feature The Kick.
