Who is Charlie Papps?
Charlie Papps is one half of The Handymen, a two-player improv show at Improv Theatre Sydney that sets out to help the audience with its real problems. He and Nat Jensen take the troubles people bring and work on them through comedy, mixing the quick games of short-form improv with the longer scenes of long-form, while Morgan Mandorla adds live music. Whatever they try on stage is meant to help an audience member forget a worry, fix it or at least feel better about it. At the 2026 ITS Comedy Festival The Handymen shared a Mini Theatre bill with That Show In Reverse, an improvised show told backwards. [1]
