This was my first improv show ever, and I really enjoyed it. The creativity this crew has is incredible. Very well done! If I lived nearby I'd catch their shows quite often, since as they mention, it's a different one each time. Well done!

Half the fun of watching improv lies in seeing the performers goad and test each other and the occasional break-down of communication is the price you pay. Didn’t disappoint, lots of laughs and a joyous time all round. Looking forward to seeing these folk again soon.

Great show. It's been on my Fringe list for many years and I finally got round to seeing it! Good for HP fans and improv fans alike. The cast are fab and the story on the night we watched was funny. Only downside for me was the venue design was a bit distracting with the columns of the room obscuring the view throughout. But the show was good enough to mostly take this distraction away. Definitely worth a watch!

Hmmm. Some very funny segments but also some that missed the mark entirely for me. Can’t fault the energy or enthusiasm of the group - maybe introducing fewer characters misguided work better. Worth a watch, - it’s different every time, so maybe I caught them on a slightly off day.
