Description
Oi Oi! Nightwatchman is a 55-minute split-bill from Kit Loyd and Ollie West. A mixture of clowning, physical comedy and character comedy from two Gaulier-trained megastars. Kit once got recognised in Costa Coffee. Ollie has been to New York. This is no joke! Nightwatchman is a fast-paced, slick, whirlwind of a show. Leicester Comedy Festival Award nominees. 'One of the best pieces of comedy I've seen in ages' ***** (EdFringeReview.com). 'This is genius' ***** (FairyPoweredProductions.com). 'A dizzying, adrenaline-fuelled triumph' ***** (StageyLady.com).

Really enjoyed this show.
It's weird. the structure is not clear and some of it is cringy but it's funny and silly and you don't feel like anything which happens is expected. it's definitely worth a view to get aquinted with these two. very different tones from each of them on stage which keeps things fresh.

Hysterically entertaining and totally nuts - an hour of brilliant off the wall comedy. Go see it..

This is a lovely little show with two performers each with a range of characters that they perform alternately. No politics, no contentious subjects, just pure comedy. I loved it. And I got to perform my train impression, so really it was perfect.

I heard the Nightwatchmen was one to see and it definitely didn’t disappoint. A hilariously silly show full of surprises. I didn’t stop laughing for the full hour. Couldn’t recommend it more!

Both boys are stupidly good at what they do. Stupidly fun, everyone in the audience loved it. Go see it now.

Absolutely hilarious pair with wonderfully crafted character creations. A great repertoire with the audience and clearly skilled improvisers. Would highly recommend going to see this.

Really wild hour of fun and energy. Funny, thoughtful and genuinely different type of show that had us all laughing. Would strongly recommend if you want to see some people making the whole room come alive and have everyone enjoy themselves.

What a riot. 9.5/10 The show is relentless funny both in terms of the actual material and also because the actors approach it with a sense of fun! Go for a mix of silly sketches and rib ticklers

Decided last minute to attend when I had a spare hour and was handed a flyer. Really glad I did. Awesome absurdist sketches with brilliant energy and delivery. If you like bonkers, off the wall comedy sketches you’ll love this. Great stuff.

Was crying of laughter (that level of laugh does not come easy to me) throughout. Have never seen anything like it but I’d go back 10 times if I could! When they next put up a show in London I’ll be there in a heartbeat! Absolutely brilliant comedy. Thank you!

Took a punt on this show as I had an hour to spare and love clowning - I'm so glad I did! An hour of pure silliness and joy. High energy, laugh-a-minute stuff, with two very likeable and talented clowns. Definitely one to add to your itinerary - you won't regret it.
