About

Friday 1st November | 2024 | 9pm - 10pm
Malt Cross, St James' Street
Tickets: £5.50 advance / £7 on door

Split bill of branching timelines and friendship-based improvised comedy!

CHAOS THEORY

A butterfly flaps its wings in the Amazon Rainforest - and on the other side of the world a hurricane forms… Only this time the hurricane is the improv team Chaos Theory! We will explore branching timelines from a single audience choice and discover its effects on the world we've created.

BEN PALS

Ben likes to make friends. He has made a lot of them through improv and they usually laugh a lot, but right now Ben isn't laughing because he doesn't get to see them that often. The Solution: Ben Pals – a show all about friends improvising together. Expect laughter and real emotion from this veteran of the UK improv scene and his special guests.
