Overview
Le Grand Yes And! is Montreal's improv festival celebrating unscripted creativity and joyful live performance. Founded by Lucie Gee, Costa Tsimiklis, and Victor Borges, the festival brings together troupes from across North America for five days of spontaneous theatre, comedy, and connection - from fast-paced shortform to poetic longform, musical improv to genre-hopping experiments. The inaugural edition ran September 24-28, 2025, at Theatre La Comedie de Montreal.
The festival also runs a spring companion event, Le Mini Grand Yes And, which focuses on producer-centric improv shows rather than troupes.
