Jester

Jester is the show where we put our newbies on stage with some of our old hands. It's a family friendly comedy show in the style of TV’s Whose Line Is It Anyway? Improvisers are called up to perform scenes, sagas and songs based on the audience’s suggestions all vying to be crowned the Jester. Always different, always fun!


“Sheer madcap wit and an energetic slapdash hour of fun.” Theatreview


“Come armed with your funny bone and some unique suggestions for the performers who are guaranteed to leave you grinning from ear to ear before the night is done.”

Our fully licensed bar opens one hour before the show begins so come and have a drink before the show.

No audience member is brought up on stage, so you can relax and enjoy the show from the comfort of your seat.
