Criminal - January 17

Event information

A foul whiff of crime spreads across these lands. There are wicked deeds afoot.

Welcome...to Criminal.

Let us set the scene. Just last night the wealthy chewing gum baron Lord Glen Flodbury was found dead - brutally murdered. Really nasty. Our plucky detective must solve this grisly mystery over the course of one evening, interrogating three suspects (one of whom is totally guilty) and finding order in the chaos.

For the innocent suspects the aim of the game is to trick the detective into thinking they're guilty; the guilty suspect, on the other hand, must try not to be found out.

Criminal is a monthly improv gig that puts the 'serious crime' back into 'great comedy night'.

Join us as we embark on our inaugural night, featuring these five sickeningly talented comedians:
