Essentially 2 shows in one for a tenner - Short form improv with a musical edge in the first half and a fully improvised musical in the second half with some extremely talented players. Along with the laughs were some really heartfelt moments too and the crowd were encouraged to get involved with suggestions, and (without needing the encouragement) a sing-a-long at the end. Well worth the price of admission and more.

It was outstandingly funny and entertaining! I'm still speechless about the fact that the artists on stage created a musical with a great storyline, memorable characters and wonderful songs just out of thin air! Thank you!
