Who are Speakerbox?

Speakerbox is the musical improv show of Improv Theatre Sydney, staged there every month. Each night a guest tells true stories from their own life, and the cast turns what they hear into songs and scenes made up on the spot, so the evening becomes a musical no one will see twice. The company has played the ITS Comedy Festival more than once. Its 2026 line-up was Oli Burgmann, Marty Quinn, Kristelle Zibara, Becca Hurd, Lucy Allen, Jeff Mesina, Carla Field and Finn Hoegh-Guldberg, several of whom were also in its 2024 festival cast with Shane Porter, Liam Webber and Nick Harriott.
