A festive wake in honor of Keith Johnstone, our patron saint of impro. On Sunday, June 25, 2023, at the Pumphouse Theatre in Calgary, we will celebrate the life of Keith, the pioneer of improvisation, our beloved mentor and friend who passed away on March 11.
Due to Keith's far-reaching impact on so many people, we are unsure of what to expect in terms of numbers and need to ensure the venue can safely accommodate all who wish to attend in person. This is why this registration form was created, and we thank you for taking the time to fill it out!
The Pumphouse is the original home of The Loose Moose Theatre, the company Keith co-founded in 1977. From our Pumphouse base, we will Live Stream the event around the world and in conjunction with parallel wakes in Brazil and the UK. Some curated content will be presented and, of course, exciting moments of spontaneity! But no speeches, per Keith's wishes.
SPACE IS LIMITED. REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED. You are allowed 1 guest (see below). If you have more than 1 guest, please ask your additional guest(s) to fill out a separate registration form.
(Note: If you cannot attend in person but want to watch the Live Stream, please do not fill out this form. Live Stream info and other event updates will be posted here when available. Bookmark this webpage!)
Finally, please consider donating to the "Celebrating the Life of KeithJohnstone" GoFundMe campaign. Every donation, no matter how small, will make a difference in helping Keith's festive wake become the celebration we think Keith deserves. And all donors will be properly thanked in the video tribute.
We look forward to seeing you at Remembering Keith!
