Bored of the same pantomimes every year? The ComedySportz team are back this Christmas for more Totally Improvised Pantomimes! Heroes, villains, songs and silliness are guaranteed this December as the gang create brand-new pantomime adventures using audience suggestions... and a sprinkling of fairy dust. Oh yes they do!

This show from the award-winning ComedySportz team is sure to delight audiences of all ages with shows for families, tots and even an adults-only show which promises to be raunchier and ruder, but no less silly fun! Each show is a loving pastiche of familiar pantomime tropes and characters where anything can happen. The performers don’t know their roles beforehand, and audiences might even get involved in the action! There will be live music and songs, games and plenty of festive fun for all.

“We love everything about pantomimes but want to give people an alternative to the same old stories every year,” says cast member Sean Mason. “Every show is unique to that audience which makes the whole thing even more magical. Audiences get really involved in the fun!”

ComedySportz, who performed regular competitive comedy improv shows at Waterside Arts, have been delighting audiences of all ages with their quick-witted brand of gags and games since 2001. In 2022 they won “Best Alternative Act” at the North West Comedy Awards.

The Totally Improvised Pantomimes have proven to be a real hit with audiences looking for something a little different and are sure to be a sell-out so early booking is advised.
