I tell everyone that I saw The Play That Goes Wrong in room above a pub, with the cast outnumbering the audience. And a few years ago at the Fringe, I saw Lights, Camera, Improvise which has now evolved into Mischief Movie Night.
It’s a simple premise, the audience shout out suggestions and the incredibly talented performers act out the film under the guidance (and direction) of Oscar (Jonathan Sayer).
The night we attended we witnessed a zombie horror musical set in a hairdressers. The onstage musicians provided the tune for the opening number “Snip Snip” and off we went. Stopping along the way for rewinds, directors cuts and explanations and Chicken Nuggets
This was one hour of total, surreal hilarity and you are guaranteed to see a different show every night. You’d be foolish to miss it
