Edinburgh Fringe 2023!

CSzUK is heading back for our 16th Edinburgh Fringe this month! This year we're performing two shows, ComedySportz and The Totally Improvised Musical, every day from the 3rd-16th August. We're proud to once again be part of the Free Festival, giving audiences more opportunities to access shows whilst also making performances sustainable for performers.

We'll also be making guest appearances in other shows across the festival, including our friends at Comedy Club 4 Kids. Be sure to follow our adventures on social media for all the latest news!

ComedySportz (Ages 7+)

Our players have ironed their kits and sharpened their wits for two weeks of all action, all star fun and games for all ages! Every ComedySportz match will see two teams go for gold with improvised gags and games - who wins? YOU decide!

This year we are joined by more players from other ComedySportz teams than ever before. If you're looking for family friendly fun at the fringe, this is one fixture you won't want to miss.

TICKETS

Our Tickets at The Edinburgh Fringe

As mentioned above, both shows are part of the Free Festival. Audiences can guarantee a seat with a Pay What You Want ticket starting from £5 or take a chance on the day and make a donation at the end (if you can afford to do so). These options help to give audiences more access to the arts whilst also ensuring that shows are sustainable for performers. You can book tickets directly from the Edinburgh Fringe Website or the Edfringe App (available on Apple and Android devices).

Please note: tickets go off sale half an hour before that day's show is scheduled to begin, however, that doesn't necessarily mean it has sold out and you may still be able to get in!

ComedySportz at Waterside Arts

It's the last of our regular ComedySportz matches at Waterside Arts in Sale this month before we take a summer break (not really a summer break as we'll be performing at the Edinburgh Fringe!). Think of this month's show like the FA Cup Final of ComedySportz before our next season kicks off in September. Who wins? YOU decide!

Join us on Saturday 24th June for some all action, all improvised comedy fun! Don't miss the weekend's funniest fixture and book tickets now.

Brighton Fringe 2023

OH WE DO LOVE TO BE BESIDE THE SEASIDE… We are delighted to be returning to Brighton Fringe Festival this month! Join us for a bank holiday weekend jam-packed with gags and games for all ages! Our players have ironed their kits and sharpened their wits. Join them for a weekend of award-winning competitive comedy action for all ages. Who wins? YOU decide!

Don't miss the festival's funniest fixture and book your tickets today! We want to make sure that big festival's like the Brighton Fringe are financially accessible to audience - whilst being financially viable for artists - so we have a few ticketing options for 2023. You can book an advance ticket or take a chance and turn up on the day - donations welcome. Advance tickets are on a Pay What You Want basis starting from £5.

You can catch us at Laughing Horse @ The Walrus (Basement Room) daily at 2.45pm from the 27th to the 29th of May. Book your advance tickets here.

Follow us as we #JourneyIntoFringe on social media where we'll be posting about our adventures every day. Brighton is the one of several upcoming big festival appearances for us this year. The Totally Improvised Musical heads to Buxton Fringe this July. Then ComedySportz returns once again to the Edinburgh Fringe this August!

15 Years At Waterside Arts!

This weekend we're celebrating 15 years of fun and laughter at Waterside Arts! Join us on Saturday 22nd April for an evening of all action, all improvised fun for all ages. Tickets can be booked here or via venue box office.

Never seen a ComedySportz match before? Two teams will be going for gold with quick-witted gags and games inspired by your suggestions. Who wins? YOU decide! Don't miss the weekend's funniest fixture - the fun kicks off at 6.30pm.

If you've got children aged 6 and under, check out ComedySportz 4 Tots at 3pm. It's a show with plenty of big laughs for little kids as our players entertain with silly songs and sketches. Book tickets here.

And before all of that, Sean and Bron will also be appearing on BBC Radio Manchester Saturday morning at 10.40 am to talk all things ComedySportz.

We're so excited to be celebrating 15 years at Waterside Arts and want to say a big thank you to the venue staff and audiences that have made the shows so much fun! Whether it's a regular show, a Halloween Spooktacular or March Mayhem Match, we've loved entertaining audiences at Waterside Arts and watching our audiences grow... literally!
