Available until: I think it’s available till 29th April.
The latest Showstopper musical is set somewhere I can’t tell you about because it would give away which story the Showstoppers chose but it is a really interesting place to set a musical and it was really good.

Available until: 30th April. There’s another livestream tomorrow at 7.30pm.
I think improvising is brilliant. It’s so much cleverer than just remembering stuff which other people made up and it means you never have to learn any lines. I’m going to be the prime minister and that’s a bit like improvising because I’ll get asked loads of questions I don’t know the answer to and loads of questions I don’t want to tell anyone the answer to so if I get bored of ruling the country maybe I’ll be a showstopper because they rule too!

If you only want to see this one, make sure you don’t rent the 26.2.21 edition by mistake. Both are worth seeing, but renting the wrong show can be one of the most annoying things ever. And I should know.)
Available until: 3rd April
The incredibly-talented Showstoppers return for their second show in two days and it’s definitely one of their best. Two ideas suggested by the audience at the start set the scene for this exciting and emotional musical, full of twists and turns with one or two tantrums as well.
By Dave
Available until: This show will be available until 2nd April. There is another live, improvised Showstopper show today (27th March) at 7.30pm and another on 24th April. (If you book the 24th April show now you’ll be entered into a prize draw to have a song improvised for you live on air.)
The Showstoppers are a group of musical theatre performers who improvise shows live in response to suggestions from the audience. Usually it’s in a theatre but it all works very well online too. This is the eighth online show which has been watched and reviewed by the Mobile Theatre team.

Available until: I’m not sure they said, but the video is usually available for a couple of days.
The Showstoppers are back with another hilarious and extraordinary improvised show. Once more, four intrepid Showstoppers put themselves into the hands of their audience and I don’t think they regretted it. The audience certainly didn’t.

I always thought the Showstoppers were
good but I think this might be their best ever. It was one of my dream
Showstopper line ups, the audience came up with a great story idea and I really
enjoyed the music.
In case you don’t know the format, the
Showstoppers improvise musicals from suggestions from the audience. They
usually do this in a theatre but obviously they haven’t been able to do that so
they’ve been doing livestreams with suggestions coming from youtube chat. The
audience get to suggest things like the main story of the musical, the title of
the musical (this is chosen at the start of Act 2), new plot ideas, locations
for scenes and lots of songs in different musical styles.
