OLD Instant Wit at The Alma Tavern and Theatre

About

The best in improvised comedy - welcome to an evening of songs, gags and general silliness – all of it based on audience suggestions.

Who fancies a very silly opera set in 10 Downing Street? Or a sketch, set on the Titanic, where the actors can only use a set number of words every time they speak?

But don't worry, nobody is forced to participate and we even build in a section where anonymous suggestions, written down in the interval, can be acted out.

Good suggestions receive flying packets of custard; the best of the evening gets a bottle of wine! Many people have seen improvised comedy on TV but remember, this is not recorded and edited, but totally live! If you like your comedy fast-paced and with a slightly unusual edge, this is definitely for you.

Times:
