To the OIF 2026 team
Thank you for making this year's festival a success!
A message from the Co-directors
Deborah, Adriana, and Chris here, your OIF 2026 Co-directors! OIF is over, and what an amazing weekend it was!
While we co-directed this year's festival, we certainly didn't do all the work! All the good from this festival was only made possible by the effort of so many people, join us in thanking these crucial members of the OIF organizing team!
To our volunteers
We want to thank our AMAZING volunteers: Will, Dan, Jinnie, and Sophie at the door, and the incomparable Laura and Fred at the bar, for giving their time and energy to the festival!
Millie Close did our graphic design and ran our social media for the festival. We can't thank her enough for all her help getting the word out and generating excitement and the all-important buzz!
We'd also like to thank Chelsea who gave us some initial direction on how to promote the festival. And Kat for being so reliable and recording the shows each night - thank you!
Our stage managers, Peter, Woody, Josh M., Krystal, and Chris D. made sure the shows ran smoothly!
Lindsey, our incredible tech director, was up in the booth for all three nights of the festival, supporting our improvisers with her years of experience!
We had phenomenal hosts keeping the energy up and our crowds engaged. Thanks so much to Jinnie and Matthew, Christina and Joanna, Velvet and Claire, Michel and Gilbert, and Patrice and Mike for your excellent performances!
Thanks for much to our OIF selection committee who helped to pick our acts for this years festival. They remain anonymous but thank you so much for you help in making the fest a success.
The Arts Court team was also integral to setting this festival up. Our beautiful venue did not go unnoticed by our friends from out of town. Thanks so much to the Arts Court team for their time and attention this weekend!
