⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "Hilarious! perfect addition to your fun night out." – North West End

Absurdocles is the greatest Greek Tragedy never told. This hour-long improvised comedy show explores themes of love, loss, pride, power and the fraught relationship between gods and mortals. And just like the deity Gelos, it has the power to make you laugh your sandals off.

No need to be a Classics scholar, though – the madcap characters, ingenious plots and general mayhem of Absurdocles are for everyone. All the audience needs to do is provide three simple suggestions and the cast will create a gripping tale culminating in an important yet nonsensical moral.

Entirely improvised, the show is different every single time. You might see the god of toes tormenting a Woking-based CEO one night and a doomed love story between two taxidermists the next. Whatever unfolds, it'll be epic. Join us for an evening that'll leave you feeling as high as Mount Olympus.

Line up: Lora Hristova, Miriam Craig, Alex Bradbury, Laura Rogers, Anis Qizilbash, Christopher Ryan, Victoria Beardwood, Nadir Farsani and Miztli Rose.

Online sales stop a half an hour before showtime - tickets will usually be available to purchase on the door.
