I've been to a lot of improv and this group is up there! The thing that really sets them apart is their infectious energy, it really looks like they're enjoying themselves as much as the audience is! Brilliant 10/10

We loved this show, with seamless links and high energy games, from tales of bananas in compromising situations and the frustration of youthful flyerers to wasps with guns or lack there of complimented with musical accompaniment, singing amd a rap, they have everything covered!
A very creative box of frogs, one show not to be missed

In awe of this troup; confident, polished despite not knowing what material they’d be working with. Try and catch them tomorrow before they leave ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We really enjoyed it. Very clever and funny. However we came away feeling like we'd been at a children's party. Lots of youngsters shouting out, especially those getting in free with their lanyards before we had a chance to join in. That aside, I think they would do amazingly brilliant if they did an adults show. Very talented, lovely people with a passion for their art. I truly believe they will do great things in the future.

Really clever and entertaining show, came on a recommendation and totally enjoyed it from start to finish, snappy wide variety of techniques - I don’t know how they did the “charity hit single” from audience input - certainly their improv secret but I was amazed! One of my total faves of the fringe this year!

We arrived and didn't want to leave as this show from the start was great improv and comedy perfectly timed by this group of very entertaining individuals whom take words, ideas and subjects from the audience members and turn then into games, songs and drama scenes and it's hilariously funny
Highly recommend
5 star show

A hilarious highlight, and almost aggravatingly catchy as it remained stuck in my head for several hours afterwards. If you are looking for improv that leans towards the daft, family-friendly end of the spectrum rather than offensive or overly ‘adult’ humour, the frogs would be a great pick
