One Word Wonder

Following a successful run in 2023, local improv comedy troupe, AIIA Improv, returns with One Word Wonder, described as a performance where long form improv comedy meets live music, for a hilarious night out. In this unique performance, the audience plays a pivotal role by suggesting a single word that the improvisers will use to create an entire show on the spot. The show will feature the talents of AIIA Improv members Tung Jit Yang, Farah Rani, Shamaine Othman, Iedil Dzuhrie Alaudin, and Ashraf Modee Zain, alongside musical guest, Irena Taib of The Impatient Sisters. We catch up with Farah and Shamaine to find out what's in store.
