The Totally Improvised Company is back for this year's Edinburgh Fringe with FOUR shows! We’re once again back with the Laughing Horse Free Festival. You can guarantee a seat for most of our shows with a Pay What You Can ticket or take a chance on the day and make a donation at the end - and this is the important bit - only if you can afford to do so! We believe this is the best and most accessible ticketing model for both audiences and artists alike at the world’s biggest arts festival.
Whether you're looking for family friendly fun, some musical mayhem, a ridiculous character comedy show or want to help us raise some money for a great cause, we have a little something for everyone at this year's Edinburgh Fringe.

We’re producing this silly and inventive parody show at the Edinburgh Fringe. An hour of ridiculous character comedy with a surprisingly earnest bit about the Environment and a vaguely satisfying narrative arc.
“McGinty proves an affable captain of this enjoyable pleasure cruise.” Steve Bennett, Chortle

Come along for a one-off improv jam inviting improvisers from the Festival to come down and play. Audiences can expect an hilarious time with some of the top improv performers at the Fringe and donations will go to the National Youth Arts Trust, whose bursaries, youth theatres and mentorships help talented students from the UK's most disadvantaged backgrounds train in dance, music and drama.
If that’s not enough for you, several of our players will also be appearing in shows across the festival including: Comedy Club 4 Kids, Star Trek Vs. Star Wars, Best of Edinburgh Fringe for Kids, Beat The Comic, Sketch Thieves, Batsu!, Comics Vs. Kids and more… Make sure you’re following us on Facebook, Instagram, Tik Tok or BlueSky for updates on all our appearances across the festival.
