Showstopper! The Improvised Musical Fri 18 Jan 7.30pm Theatre £14.50 Under 26s £12.50 Using random audience suggestions as their inspiration, the Showstoppers devise musicals packed with drama, dazzling dance routines and catchy melodies right in front of your eyes. The show has played sell-out seasons in London’s West End, and has been a must-see staple of the Edinburgh Fringe for five years – as well as delighting audiences on tour around the world. “Top-class creativity in action. Worth seeing again and again.” Time Out
As seen on BBC 1’s Live at the Apollo and now a regular on Channel 4’s Stand Up For the Week, the double Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee Andrew Lawrence will deliver an evening of top class stand-up.
