Long time ensemble member Karl McConnell will be stepping into the role at the start of next year, bringing with him a passion to continue to produce exciting, high quality improvisation.

So started an enduring passion for improvisation, a passion which has shaped Impro Melbourne into an internationally recognised, dynamic and innovative theatre company.
Through her time as Ad, Patti has promoted a strong creative focus within Impro Melbourne, which has encouraged the company to push boundaries and challenge the work of improvisation.
