Musical improv, character comedy and stand-up
Audience suggestions help shape the night
One iconic room. Gloriously unpredictable comedy.

Original improvised show

Whose Time Is It Anyway?

Our signature show throws us into a new time, place, crisis and emotional problem we are absolutely not qualified to solve. An original improvised adventure through history, built around character and whatever chaos the audience sends us into.

You choose the time period and character
Sam arrives with no idea who or where they are
Every performance is a brand-new story

Meet our time traveller

We follow Sam, a time traveller dropped into history with no idea who they are, where they are or what they need to do.

Who convinced the Vikings that helmets needed horns? Was the Trojan Horse just a birthday present gone wrong?

And why does every solution somehow create three new problems?
