Bum Notes: The Improvised Musical

A musical that flies by the seat of our pants

Your wish is our command
Not a word nor note is planned
A brand new musical appearing sans recital
And all we need from you is … the title!

Our entirely improvised musical is back, better than ever. With a longer runtime and a bigger cast, you don’t want to miss this chance to have your musical suggestion crafted in real time into a fully realised, ridiculous, comical, and maybe even heartfelt production.

AUDIENCE REVIEWS:
“Joyful in ways you wouldn’t believe”
“5 stars!”
“Magic. Start to finish.”
“The audacity of being both hilarious and pitch perfect”
“Unfortunately, I demanded a refund as there wasn’t a single bum note”
“This was spectacular and I’m so sorry to anyone who missed it!”
“What a debut from Bum Notes – full house and a standing ovation!”

About The Company
Bum Notes is Ireland’s first improvised musical team.*
Our cast’s backgrounds are in Ireland’s improv comedy scene, and after a few musical improv workshops we knew we were hooked! We fully teamed up after finding the music marvel that is Paul Prior and applying to the Scene + Heard festival. We started performing in January 2024, and since then every show we’ve been a part of has been a sell out.

*Or at least the first one to have properly gone to stage with it…we think.
