TUESDAY 29TH MAY
ARTHUR
and MONTREAL IMPROV
The amazing Montreal Improv are here! Brent & Marc, of the Montreal Improv Theatre, dive head first into the world of pulse-pounding action with their show, EASY ACTION. All without the use of stunt-doubles, wires, or scripts!

Will it just be two thirty-year-old Canadian men making machine-gun sounds on stage for an hour? Maybe. Don't miss this international exclusive performance on Tuesday.

They will be supported by fun times, in the form of games from Arthur.
Arthur is a naughty boy, but he has a good heart. Like if the Bash Street Kids were promoted to angels.

COST: £5 on the door
