Season 12

From Grief to Laughter

Paper Street Theatre's latest season of completely improvised theatre is upon us! This season we’ll take you on a journey from grief to laughter. In Left and Grieving, we will explore how different people process grief, and the effect death has on those who are left behind. With the return of The Piano Man this Christmas, we will once again bring the bittersweetness of the holidays to life through song and storytelling. And in Laughterhouse-Five we’ll be taking inspiration from one of America’s greatest satirists, Kurt Vonnegut, in an improvised play exploring his darkly humorous writing style.

Improvisation is a joyful light that we can take with us into the darkest places. We are looking forward to taking you on a journey this season – from grief to laughter, and all the feelings in between.

Left and Grieving will take you on a journey of love, loss, memories, and the resilience of the human spirit. “The only cure for grief, is to grieve.” - Earl Grollman
