Grand Stretch Ltd

Grand Stretch Limited is Ireland’s premier member of the International TheatreSports™ Institute, bringing Keith Johnstone’s celebrated improvisation techniques to the local stage since 2017. Facilitated by Darren Yorke, the company creates a “fail‑safe” environment where participants can play, experiment and develop confidence through spontaneous theatre.

Their core offering spans dynamic workshops, training programmes and live performances, including the flagship TheatreSports™ events, the Maestro™ series and a range of novel, artistically‑driven ideas. Grand Stretch also partners with businesses, community groups and educational institutions, using improv to boost teamwork, creativity and communication across all ages and sectors.

With regular “Big Game” spectacles – such as the recent TheatreSports™ competition at Smock Alley Boys School – Grand Stretch continues to level the playing field, making improvisation accessible and exhilarating for anyone eager to raise their game.
