What do theatre and organ playing have in common? Improvisation! The undeniable success of the first edition of Improv and Organ in 2019 naturally called for a second similar event. Actors and musicians whose versatility is equalled only by their creative daring will once again face off onstage at the Maison symphonique in an improvisation match. Audience members should expect a wacky, touching, uncommon and above all memorable evening!
