It’s really satisfying to see and Improv troupe that know what they’re doing. Parrallelophonograph perform genre based improvisation, and they do it well! They’ve been performing together for six years and it shows. Lots of laughter and none of the basic mistakes that can so easily screw up long form improv.

The final show in our hunting of the Penny Dreadfuls. He has watched all of the Disney straight-to-DVD films ever released and it makes for a good hour of standup. We enjoyed it!

Saw this last night at theSpaces on North Bridge and I have to say I really enjoyed it. It’s a piece of theatre that interweaves monologues about events from the actors lives with physical theatre.
Now that might sound a bit like “art” but it was actually a very enjoyable show that explores family relationships and growing up. Good show!
Saw this last night and had a good time. It’s a selection of comedic characters from 1/3rd of the Penny Dreadfuls, and while we preferred ”Nazi Smasher” (from a different 1/3rd of the Dreadfuls), it’s still a good show worth a look.
This was EXCELLENT! Fast paced, great characters and very funny!
Go see it, you wont be disappointed!

Saw this this evening and had a great time. A one man comedy show in the vein of where eagles dare/guns of navarone/etc from one third of the sketch troupe, The Penny Dreadfuls.
Good fun and no hesitation in recommending it!

Not a cheap show, but worth the money. Slick improvised songs, energetic performances and laughs a plenty as this group improvised a full musical with a live band. All that and we got to see moose sex (it made sense in context… well, more sense).
Great fun!
