The Showstoppers
At Theatre
Thu 15 November 2012 **archived event**
A brand new musical comedy is created from scratch at each performance of this award-winning production. Audience suggestions spontaneously become an all-singing, all-dancing show on the spot, with unpredictable and hilarious results.
This incredible comedy troupe never fails to impress as they create shows packed with drama, dazzling dance routines and catchy melodies, The Showstopppersleave delighted audiences singing all the way home.
The show has played sell-out seasons in London’s West End, and has been a must-see staple of the Edinburgh Fringe for five years – as well as delighting audiences on tour around the world. Recently the group recorded their first BBC Radio Four series to great acclaim.
Having now seen Showstopper! twice, I can testify that not only is each performance achingly funny, it’s a genuinely new full-length musical every time. Top-class creativity in action. Worth seeing again and again.
Time Out London Critics’ Choice
The show is a blast. It makes your jaw drop in impressed amazement and your ribs ache with laughter. Simultaneously a pastiche, a parody and a paean to musical theatre.
Mail On Sunday
A professionally staged and brilliantly executed piece of work that is
a shining example of how good improv can be.
Chortle
Spontaneous and hilarious. Awe-inspiring and very, very funny.
