Keith Johnstone’s Lifegame to Be Staged by Improbable at Lyric Hammersmith

The theater company Improbable will present Keith Johnstone’s Lifegame at the Lyric Hammersmith, July 7-17.

The company’s previous works also include 70 Hill Lane, Animo, Cinderella, Coma, Spirit, Sticky, The Hanging Man, Theatre of Blood, Stars are Out Tonight, The Wolves in the Walls, Satyagraha and Panic.
