The Halloween Spooktacular Returns!

Okay, we know it's a little early, but if Christmas starts earlier and earlier every year, why not Halloween? We're back at Waterside Arts on Saturday 22nd October 2022 for some frightfully funny family friendly comedy shenanigans as the Boo Team take on the Dead Team with ghoulish gags and games galore!

Halloween comedy show

PLUS any one who turns up in fancy dress will also get a free treat - and that's no trick! Tickets are available now from Waterside Arts (Book Online or via Box Office) with the fun kicking off at 6.30pm. Join us for some spooky improvised competitive comedy in this special themed match.

March Mayhem Match!

It's the return of our March Mayhem Match at Waterside Arts this Saturday, 26th March! This weekend we're giving YOU control over the whole show - you'll pick the teams and the games they play. That's right, you're in charge for a night of unscripted, unpredictable and unmissable comedy action!

We'll also be picking two audience members to act as team managers giving words of encouragement to players... or offering scathing critique like the kid that told one team "that was very funny, but your acting could be better." So if you have a fan favourite game and want to put our teams of top improvisers to the test, you'll want to be at this weekend's funniest fixture. Book tickets here.
