Bakal Gym: A Drills-and-Reps Improv Training Jam by Same Bananas

Same Bananas is a Manila-based improv theatre duo composed of Sabrina Manansala and Charles Alba, who bring over seven years of experience in performing and facilitating improvisational theatre in the Philippines, Vietnam, Singapore, and other parts of Asia. They are connected by a desire to play with physicality through characters, honey cauliflower rice, and shared life stories during the wee hours of the night. Aside from performing duo improv, Sabrina and Charles host and facilitate monthly jams, workshops, and shows for the local improv community. They have also facilitated applied improvisation sessions for corporate teams within ByteDance, DB Schenker, BPI, and Jollibee.
