Are they really Scotland's best improv actors? Maybe they are! I don't care though, because this was FUN. Thoroughly enjoyable and an excellent representation of improv comedy, with lots of variety and plenty of laughter guaranteed. Would definitely recommend to get into the mood for more comedy shows.

Took the 9 year olds to their first improv show and they’re hooked! (Could be something to do with telling adults what to do?!). Great compere and very talented performers. Laugh for an hour!
