An improv show where non-Italian-speaking improvisers navigate the language barrier in real-time.

DEFROST 2026: Learn Italian with Improv

I learned English in survival mode. I was thrown into an environment where everyone spoke English and I had no choice but to learn the language. Staying silent was not an option, so I often had to improvise my answer with my best guess. Sometimes I got it right. Sometimes I didn’t. But I got a laugh and made friends.

This is an improv show where non-Italian-speaking improvisers are thrown in the deep end, navigating the language barrier in real-time in this new 25-minute format.

Featuring: Adam Kohm, Natalie Maroki, Scott Wallace, Sonia Di Iorio and Flaviano Bulfari
