The Reduced Edinburgh Fringe Impro Show
As I was waiting in the queue for this show, I was handed yet another programme, but this time was asked to pick a show, any show, circle it and put that page in a box along with other audience members' choices. This was to be the ingenious method used by the cast to inspire some wonderful laugh out loud comedy - reducing other Festival Fringe shows to one improvised scene. With only the box of selected shows and the audience for ideas, there was so much spontaneity and pace to this production that you were never sure just where they were going to head next, making it all the more amusing and enjoyable. I suggest you start looking now for the most off the wall, obscure production you can find in that fringe programme of yours.
Pleasance Dome, 7 - 28 Aug, 9:40pm (10:40pm), prices vary, fpp 64.
