Will and Greg a Sketch Show 

Hidden round the back of the Pleasance, in an ordinary looking Portakabin, is some of the finest comedy you will witness this festival.  Will and Greg were part of Ugly Kid last year, a show which was brilliant in itself.  This year they’re back as a twosome and have somehow managed to be even better.

As it says on the tin this is a sketch show.  However, it’s a sketch show in which every single last sketch is nothing short of hilarious.  This is down to the skill of both performers who prove spot on in milking humour from their facial expressions and vocal mannerisms as well as exhibiting first rate comic timing.   Each sketch is given time to form and yet never outstays its welcome.  What you’ll see here, in this hut, is far superior to half the dross that ends up on the television.  If this is a showcase of their talent they should be snapped up immediately.  Their tennis sketch with the character of Bobby Mason had me in tears of laughter and it’s no exaggeration to say that when I stepped back out into the daylight my sides actually ached from laughing so hard. 

The show I went to was pretty packed and if word spreads I’d expect this to continue, so get yourself a ticket as soon as you can.  There’s simply no easier way to put this – you absolutely, positively MUST see this show.
