Went to see this last night and it was brilliant! Very funny (and tight) first half of sketches and then the improv section at the end was great - blows my mind how people can do that. Was seriously impressive to see the cast pivot and do a different branch of comedy all in the same show. Go and see this, you won't regret it!

Cleverly written and brilliantly performed. Laughs from the start and they kept them coming all the way through.

Enthusiastic and high energy. But painfully unfunny. The actors tag one another out when jokes fell short and yet decided to resurrect fallen jokes later in the show. Not a single one of the actors felt comfortable talking to the audience and yet felt it necessary to make it part of the show. The opening "comedian" was fighting for her life. Definitely needs some more thought.

High energy, wit and great delivery, there's no better place to watch sketch comedy and improv than with Up the Antics! The first half is cracking sketches, and the second an hour of fast paced improv! A brilliant hour of fringe worthy comedy!
