Dirty Laundry is Calgary's only totally live, totally improvised comedy soap opera.
Put the cast of "Whose Line is it Anyway?" on "The Young and the Restless" and you've got DIRTY LAUNDRY. In past years we have soaped audiences up with Lust in Space, H.O.L.Y TV and The Spotwells Dry Cleaning Dynasty. We made them all corpse with the hospital drama Un-Scrubbed, cleaned up during The Dirty 30's and 2006 brought you Soapy Trails, in 1906 Alberta.
What's in the tub this year?
Dirty Laundry – Reconstructed! Space is hard to find in the booming city of Calgary. With no more room to go up, Dirty Laundry is moving down. Join Calgary's newest construction company as they build phase two of Calgary's Deepest Condominium Complex underneath the Calgary Tower.
The Full Load
Since 1999, Dirty Laundry has kept Calgary audiences in stitches with its brand of improvised comedy and weekly cliffhangers. Each episode keeps the audience coming back to find out what happens next on their 'soap'. And at Dirty Laundry, the characters find out at the same time as the audience, because it's completely improvised.
Produced by Karen Johnson-Diamond and Nicole Zylstra, Dirty Laundry boasts a live band and a host of professional actor/improvisers. With acclaimed, award winning actress Karen Johnson-Diamond in the director's chair, you'll see Calgary actors such as Tony Eyamie, Duval Lang and Chantal Perron put themselves on the line each week. In fact...YOU get a chance to iron us out in "Audience Directed Scenes." And with the band on board.... even the songs are improvised.
