Solovela, An Improvised Solo Telenovela

So good! This performer is a powerhouse talent and charmed the whole room instantly. Incredibly fun show!

The set up to the show is almost as good as the show itself, and Diane is seriously talented! One of the most unique concepts for improv I've seen, and the fact that she performs all the characters (the subtle costume changes are hilarious) is insane. I was laughing fron start to finish, go see this show!

This is a very well done improv. Diane Jorge does a very convincing job of improvising as mulitple characters! I was laughing throughtou the whole show.

Great show!! How she was able to do that on the spot. Amazing!!

this show was so entertaining and hilarious. i bought tickets to another night immediately. every show is different as she takes inspo from someone in the audience. the audience laughed at almost every line she said. 10/10

What a wonderful stage presence she has. The audience was immediately laughing with her as she took us on this absurd journey she constructed on the spot. Every show is truly unique, as she digs for secrets and tea from the audience to bring together such a fun and engaging spectacle. I can't recommend her show enough..

This was positively brilliant. The sassy star of the show cracked up the audience to foot stomping levels :) I would see this again without a doubt. The story of the lives of some audience members went from, honestly pretty dramatic already, to hilarious and toe tingling. One of the best I have seen.

Diane Jorge (pronounced "HOR-hay"), is a dynamite improviser that took her audience on a wild journey in true soup opera style! She was seamlessly switching from being a love scorned landscaper to a lustful lady and we all committed to it 100%!

Are you into comedy? Solovela is a must see!

I've never seen a performer (fringe or otherwise) be able to connect with their audience as quickly and completely as Diane does - I've seen this show twice and would go again.

The energy, the drama, the wit - but most of the all, the pure gawdamn CHARISMA.

GO SEE IT

Want to see your life as a telenovela? Who wouldn’t? You are in good hands with this performer. No prior knowledge of telenovelas necessary. Hilarious, peppy, and (overly) dramatic in all best ways.

Diane Jorge Is a masterful improviser and knows how to read people. From the start you felt like you were in a Spanish Tele Novella but then the way she interviewed the volunteers to create subject matter, for the story was fun and endearing. She mined deeper than mere suggestions And then created a delightful storyline. The entire audience was in stitches Including the trio who she interviewed! Diane’s individual characterizations never let us doubt who was speaking and their energy evolved throughout the piece. Loved the idea that she had Her own tech who riffed with the storyline and punctuated the story with a soundscape that elevated the humor. I saw this at midnight and felt energized as I left!

Absolutely worth your time and money. Her use of props to denote characters was 100% consistent & each had personality and flair.

It was a midnight show and I left more energized than when I walked in the door.

We Might Have Revealed a Threesome Tonight

This solo show was complete insanity. From the audience participation to her witty humour and charisma, Diane Jorge had the audience roaring and reacting with every quick line and joke. Having the opportunity to see the opening night show at midnight, the crowd was immediately awoken and engaged by her character.

Opening with a fantastic intro from our host, Maria, the room was immediately swept into a live telenovela inspired show. Though she was performing to the group of us, we felt seen and included as the story progressed. The improvisation in this show was ridiculously good, her memory when recalling audience cues was perfect, everything she said had the room in tears. Her use of simple props to play multiple characters was seamless and creative, and intentional.

This show was so original, funny, and such a good time. What an incredible way to end the night.

Diane Jorge is a truly entertaining performer who had the audience laughing, poking each other, and gasping with her improvised telenovela LANGUAGE CLUB OF LOVE. At least six characters were embodied with different voices, body language, and a few simple props. The audience members whose answers to a few questions inspired the story seemed to be as amused as the rest of us at the preposterous tale.

Her ability to improvise is incredible, the whole show was very fun, without a doubt I want to see it again. Each show is completely different. Of course I gonna say all my friends to watch her show in particular all my latinos amigos.

Oh. My. God. I’m muerta de la risa! 😂🤣. If you need more drama de telenovela in your life (and who doesn’t?), you HAVE to see this show! My cheeks hurt from laughing so much. She brings all the passion and all the laughs. I'm bringing todos mis amigos with me next time! Official new fan. We love you, María… Smith! 🤣😂

I loved this show, how she developed the characters and I know I could go see every single one of her shows and they would all be hilarious and different every time. If you have the chance to see this one please go. 10/10 laughed so hard.

Diane Jorge is a superbly talented performer, and creates a memorable hour. The format is great and her dynamic with the audience is undeniable.

Diane is absolutely brilliant! Captivating from beginning to end. She is cleaver and engaging, from the audience interviews to the Solovela I was hooked and couldn't look away! A true talent and gem! SEE THIS SHOW!! I plan to see it more than once. TELL YOUR FRIENDS!
