"Letters to Bravo" - Improvised Stand-up: Matan, Podwysocka, Górniak, Różalska, Chachulska

"Letters to Bravo" is a comedy show featuring improvisation, audience interaction, and stand-up. The performers from the "do Bigosu" team draw on archived letters sent to "Bravo" magazine and work with the audience to answer them anew. Sample questions from those times include "Can I get pregnant in a bathtub?" and "Am I too crazy to have a boyfriend?" The program evokes the early 2000s, when the internet ran on dial-up. Questions about love, friendship, and physiology were sent to the magazine's address, and answers were printed alongside photos of Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears. The performers improvise, joke, and act out scenes, checking whether 20-year-old advice still makes sense and how they would handle those dramas today. Performers include: Agnieszka Matan - comedian, stand-up performer, improviser, and screenwriter. Winner of local eliminationsin the math competition Kangur in 1997.
