Instant Wit! The Best in Improvised Comedy
Who wants to hear a folk song about a tap-dancing T-Rex? Who wants to see a sketch where King Charles and the Prime Minister play Twister? Who wants a great night out at a show you've helped to put together yourself? Because we've got just the ticket! In an Instant Wit show, it's you, not us, who decide what the songs and the sketches are about. And, if at any point, you're starting to get cold feet at the prospect of shouting out suggestions, don't panic - in the interval there's a chance to put written ones in the Mixing Bowls, so that they can be used at random during the second half of the show. Naturally us Witters like to reward people for their hard work, so for good suggestions you get to choose between soup or custard, whilst the very best one of the evening will win you a bottle of wine. We're proud to use some of the best of local talent, with our performers regularly appearing at the Tobacco Factory Theatre, Theatre Royal Bath and Bristol Old Vic. If you fancy something hilarious, fresh and off-the-cuff, this is the show for you. Because why have Wit re-heated when you can have it Instant? "These are conspicuously skilful performers - everyone is exhilarated on stage and off!" - The Guardian "Extremely funny, on occasion hilarious... Very clever and skilful with their improvised comedy sketches. They got the audience involved at every opportunity - they even made up a song about a round of sausage sandwiches I had had for breakfast!" - Bristol Evening Post
