Auditioning for improv, a Show Jam production

Scaramouche

Show Jams are back! In the first half you’ll see the premiere of the amazing improv group Bread Bread Cheese Cheese. And then on the second half, we’ll invite you to come perform with us on stage. Or if you prefer, you can just sit back and enjoy all the unscripted scenes being created by strangers.

How to find us

At the (stage) bar! If you think you’re at the wrong spot cause you’re looking at a car park, you are correct! Go through and at the right end of the back wall you’ll find the entrance to In Impetus. From there, you can follow the signs to the bar upstairs 🙂

Support

Your contribution helps keep these sessions running and accessible to all. We suggest a minimum of 5 euros, but feel free to give what you can. Every bit goes directly towards creating more sessions and building this community.
And of course, let’s get some drinks at the bar to support the venue!!

What's your most awkward job interview situation?:
I was asked my spirit animal. I said I wanted to be an otter to roll in the water all day doing nothing. I got hired.   •   the interviewer being my mortal enemy   •   That one time I thought I was gonna be working at a bakery and went to a job interview at a butcher's. Confused loafs of bread with loafs of meat; meatloafs.   •   You saw your interviewer pooping next to the festival's mainstage 3 days ago   •   It was for a call centre job, the interviewer started yelling pretending to be an angry customer, I hung up the phone, he kept yelling. I told him the phone is hung up, he said your not cur for this job, I said obviously   •   the ones i do in improv scenes 🤡   •   I was asked what my greatest passion was and I said feijoada with pistachio   •   Trial shift on the waltzers. Motion sickness made me throw up.   •   What’s the company name again?   •   I arrived to the interview and in that moment, they put me on a whole white equipment and told me there was a biological leak in the laboratory. After the initial threat, they told all the interviewees that we had to find the cure. It was a recruitment process where we had to do an scape room! The most awkward and fun job interview I’ve been part of.   •   Being offered below minimum wage but the CEO telling me I'll have stock options and the company no longer exists   •   Walking on the CEO in the toilet, before interview.   •   I applied for an english possition but the interviewer received me and talked to me in Portuguese and we kept talking in Portuguese but my level was still so low that I finally deared to ask her of this was for an english role and it could be in english and fortunately she changed to enlish. On top of that the interviewer was not even Portuguese so nothing of it really made sense.   •   Getting hit on   •   When the interviewer asks for my number   •   The interviewer telling me we have a long list of candidates and we will call you soon and them being hired 5 minutes later.   •   I tried showing my dedication by showing up in the work uniform. Turns out they don't love being match-y match-y at an interview   •   After 15 minutes, everyone in that interview knew I wouldn't get the job, and yet it kept going for 2 hours!   •   Arrive late   •   I got hired at all my job interviews, right away. 💪😎💚   •   I was asked my spirit animal.
