    What's that sound? The Bluff Education Hour presents an improvised radio play performed in the dark, in the round, and in spatial audio. Mixing audience suggestions with an on-the-fly sound design, players will weave together a longform improv requiring everything but their good looks. It's an experience that's equal parts surreal, immersive, and nutritious for the imagination. Soften your gaze and let's save the world.

ABOUT

The Bluff Education Hour is a Barcelona-based creative collective blending improvisation, writing, and sound-play to explore new performance practices. Their flagship shows, Windy Bluffs, True Bluff Waits, and I Know What You Bluffed Last Summer are performed at theatres and festivals and released in spatial audio for listeners worldwide.

As improvisers, we have a responsibility to challenge injustice and not allow our stages to normalize oppression through silence. As the genocide in Palestine continues alongside settler-colonialism, apartheid, and military occupation, neutrality is not an option.

The Bluff Education Hour has signed the GRIP statement, joining improv theatres, festivals, artists, professionals, and students around the world committed to these principles. We encourage you to do the same.
