ABOUT THE SHOW

It's a playful collective experience!

David Elms Describes A Room is a one-hour-long improvised show. In the show, veteran improviser David leads the audience through the game of building a room together as a collective. The objects in the room, the stories behind the objects, the person behind the stories. It's different every time!


The show ran monthly at The Free Association from May 2022 to January 2025 and now travels to venues around the UK and beyond, most recently selling out a 5-night run at Soho Theatre.


If you'd like the show to come to a venue near you, let David know!
