An Artful Montage

WePolak long-form improv show represents an artful montage of playful, wise exploration of relationships sparkled with existential philosophy, performed with creative intimacy characteristic of improv masters. An additional, unique element of the WePolak initiative is a demonstration of the inclusive power of improv as it effectively applies across the language and cultural differences.

They Exceeded Those High Expectations

I knew both Monika and Jeff by reputation before watching them perform, and they exceeded those high expectations. Their connection to each other, and their musical accompanist was palpable. They had such an assurance and command of the room, and their stagecraft was second to none. Their scenes were poignant, hilarious, and delightful in equal measure. They used the space to great effect and made every move look effortless. This was one of my favourite shows at SWIMP22 and I can’t wait to watch them again!

Two Masters

Two masters turning pure feeling into theatre. WePolak are an absolute surreal joy to watch as both an audience member and/or massive improv nerd.

Masters Of Their Craft

I had the pleasure of seeing WePolak at The Sweden Improv Festival and was transfixed the whole way through. Jeff and Monika are masters of their craft, and improvise with a very genuine sensitivity, awareness and humor. Aspects and sensations from all over the theatre are employed to spontaneously capture and explore a myriad of characters and topics in an amusing and intimate way. Monika and Jeff display a fantastic ability to quickly find and realize comical characters and relationships. If you have an interest in improvisational comedy and theatre, you don’t want to miss an opportunity to catch their show.

Something Beautiful

WePolak played a show for us. Something beautiful! Everything Jeff talked about at the workshop came up during the show. I haven’t laughed so much for a long time. Plus, watching them play taught me how good an improv can be. If I were to summarize my experiences after the workshops and the performance in one word, I would say: I RECOMMEND!

It’s MAGICAL

Jeff and Monika are great improvisers as individuals, but when they get together on stage… it’s MAGICAL. Their skill, their atmosphere, their chemistry all combined create a unique and colourful result. I was impressed by they way the changed from plain comedy to political satire, to deeper emotional scenes giving to the audience a great variety of scenes. This show was not only entertaining, but also educational without becoming didactic at all. I promise you will have fun and after that you will have a lot of things to think about!

Dynamism And Creativity

The WePolak performance I attended in Warsaw was characterized by the dynamism and creativity of the performers. The actors used the available space to the limit, creating a lot of diverse scenes. They also maintained the continuity of the entire long form well by linking present scenes with those that happened earlier. It was a really decent show.
