Who are That Show In Reverse?
That Show In Reverse, from Improv Theatre Sydney, is an improvised comedy that tells its tale from the last page to the first. It opens with the players taking their curtain call, then hops backwards through a run of scenes, each one uncovering the cause behind something the audience has already seen happen. Outcomes arrive before their reasons, so the pleasure lies in tracing how it all started, with broad characters and jokes that pay off before they are set up. The 2026 cast, at the ITS Comedy Festival, was Rachel Slee, Felix Ryan, Kimie Tsukakoshi, Genevieve Kaiser, John Grist and Sam Westwood. [1]
