A Drunken Sailor offers robust, enthralling drama anytime anywhere: from the top of a bus to international festivals to national theatre tours.
FIVE STAR REVIEW for A Drunken Sailor PLAYBACK IMPRO
Edinburgh The Mirror
A real standout from all the stand-up, this is comic improvisation theatre-style. Four actors each take it in turn to direct a narrative supplied by the audience.
It can be anything from a mundane event on the way to the theatre, to a traumatic childhood experience. The interaction is fun, compelling and very imaginative.
And the the quick-witted troupe step into your story, giving it a genre and treatment in seconds – making it very slick. A show that will keep you coming back for another unrepeatable performance.
Edinburgh Broadway Baby
'The Fringe is absolutely saturated with wonderful improvised comedy. Stalwarts of the festival have consistently provided brilliant nights out for years. To stand out in this competitive environment is quite a feat, but London-based troop A Drunken Sailor manage it with their Free Fringe offering - a fresh, funny and strangely cathartic show.'
Brighton Broadway Baby
“It does not get any better than this. Spontaneous, ingenious and thoroughly entertaining. One hour was way too short for this treat”.
