Show starts at 7.30pm.\nTickets are Pay What You Can with a minimum of £8. \nThis month under the Spotlight we have Channel Hoppers and Neon Blossom. \nChannel Hoppers \nBiscuit Chair presents Channel Hoppers – an improvised comedy show\, conceived during the ‘Creating a Show’ course at the BIT\, loosely inspired by the hit TV format Gogglebox. \nThe show is driven by the audience – their suggestions for a TV show\, film\, or genre determine the content. We start by meeting the initial ‘watchers’ on the couch\, distinct characters with unique dynamics. Sitting down to watch some TV\, they select the first piece of content\, and the rest of the cast performs an improvised\, unique interpretation of it on the ‘TV screen’. \nThe watchers wield the ultimate control: they can pause\, rewind\, or fast-forward the action\, forcing instant\, often hilarious\, adjustments from the performers. \nAs the channel changes and the cast rotates\, we get a fresh mix of relationships and comedic connections on the couch\, ensuring the show remains dynamic and unpredictable. \nNeon Blossom \nLaurence and Ben offer a double-prov where the format will be decided after the audience suggestion. Increasing the anxiety and blood pressure of anyone who has booked them\, because there’s no telling what’s these lads are going to do. \nEntry requirements: 16+

We’ll be presenting one-off special festive versions of Bristol improv shows. Starring ‘Cosmic Puddle’ and ‘Brother’s Grin Christmas Fairytales’ \n*Cosmic Puddle* \nMaking the everyday ✨whimsical.✨ Narrative 2-prov from two of Bristol’s most improvisers. \n*Brother’s Grin Christmas Fairytales* \nIt’s Christmas eve and a parent and child cuddle up by the fireside to read a Christmas fairytale. Perhaps it’s a story of magic and ice queens\, perhaps of talking penguins and presents – the components of the story will be entirely decided by you\, the audience\, who will be invited to draw pictures for the story book before the show. With each page\, the Christmas tale will be brought to life by larger than life improvisers. \nYet not all is all as merry and bright as it seems. Will the parent and child learn the lesson they need to from the story book ready for Christmas morning? Or are they destined to stay on Santa’s naughty list forever? \nBrother’s Grin is a narrative longform improv from the Adorable Spies. \nEntry requirements: no age restrictions

SUMMARY:Mockumentary Now & Impromptwo
DESCRIPTION:TicketsStrap yourselves in for a night of deep laughs\, high emotions and knockout entertainment with this unique double header of Mockumentary Now and Impromptwo. \nWe all have our favourite mockumentary from Christopher Guest’s cannon to The Office\, Parks and Recreation and many more. Watch a new Mockumentary unfold and unravel as Bristol’s best bring some serious belly laughs to the PRSC for one night only! \nJoining them and last seen in Bristol in 2024\, we are delighted to welcome ImprompTwo. Fresh from standing ovations across Europe\, they bring a magic to the stage that will leave you wrapped in a blanket of funny wonder. \nImprompTwo is not your average improv troupe. Known for their emotionally resonant\, intimate\, and often hilarious performances\, this duo takes improvised theatre to a new level—one where vulnerability\, timing\, and chemistry drive the story just as much as wit and spontaneity. Over the past seven years\, Kathy and Joe Rinaldi have brought their unique form of improv to festivals around the world\, most recently in Oslo\, Liverpool\, Lisbon\, and Nottingham. They bring decades of experience in theatre and performance from New York to Canada\, blending a deep understanding of storytelling with a vibrant\, theatrical approach to improvisation.

SUMMARY:The People's Comedy: Best in Class SPECIAL

On top of that\, no headliners showcasing each act’s unique comedic voice. Also\, this night supports the collectively owned PRSC building to grow and thrive. More about them here: https://prsc.org.uk/ \nWHY BEST IN CLASS?\nBest in Class was founded in 2018 by comedian Sian Davies to tackle the financial and social barriers that block working class comedians from progressing in the comedy industry. What started as a crowdfunded\, profit-sharing Edinburgh Fringe show has grown into a bold movement that platforms working class voices\, provides vital training\, and ensures comedians are paid fairly for their work.\nEvery act selected for Best in Class receives support in marketing\, tech\, and promotion—without having to pay to take part. It’s more than just a showcase; it’s a challenge to the industry’s gatekeeping\, and a lifeline for underrepresented comics.\nBest in Class has sold out year after year at the Edinburgh Fringe and picked up major awards along the way\, including the Panel Prize at the Edinburgh Comedy Awards (2022 & 2024)\, a Fringe Recovery Grant\, and a BBC Comedy Grant. \n✔ Both have: raised tens of thousands of pounds for comedians paid in-line with our equal pay structure. \nPlease note: the more we make through tickets\, the more we can pay acts! But please only give as much as you can comfortably. \nThere is a bar which opens the same time as doors\, from 7pm.\nThe show starts at 7:30pm\, so please arrive comfortably before then. \nMore information about us at www.thepeoplescomedy.org

SUMMARY:Creative Reactions: Pint of Science Comedy Night
DESCRIPTION:Five local comedians with science backgrounds bring you a night of smart\, side-splitting stand-up. Expect anatomical anecdotes\, computational chaos\, physics puns\, and scientific silliness. This event is curated by MoSAIC.\nPeer-Reviewed Punchlines and Multiple Wasted Science Degrees.\n\nGaz Lawrence (MC) \n\n\n\n\nLloyd Lewis (Comedian and Scientist) \n\n\n\n\nLynsey Smart (Psychiatric researcher-turned-comedian) \n\n\n\n\nMatt Hobs (Comedian and Scientist) \n\n\n\n\nSophie Litherland (Comedian\, Writer\, Presenter\, Scientist) \n\n\n\n\n\nYour host for the evening is a former chemistry teacher turned stand-up comedian and artist. Now liberated from the curriculum (and the classroom dad jokes)\, he brings his knack for engaging even the most disengaged to the stage\, serving up playful material with a cerebral twist. \nMatt Hobs has been performing on the comedy circuit since 2012. A proud Bristolian\, scientist and silly sausage. Drawing on his background as a scientist\, Matt explains science and scientific principles. He makes complicated concepts simple\, understandable and hilarious. \nScottish comedian Lynsey Smart is a former psychiatric genetics researcher turned stand-up\, known for her delightfully chaotic energy and flair for the ridiculous. She weaves stories with sharp wit making her a standout voice in the South West’s thriving\, nerd-friendly comedy scene. \nSophie is a stand-up comedian\, writer\, and presenter with a passion for science and has plenty to say about everything else\, too. Known for blending sharp comedy with curious facts\, she’s your go-to guide for the weird and wonderful\, including the surprising sex lives of animals. \nLloyd draws on his science background to craft original premises that take unexpected\, surreal turns. His unique comedic style is a refreshing presence on the Bristol circuit\, offering audiences a new appreciation for life’s everyday oddities.
