"ASTONISHING ... Showstopper! has everything you could want from a blockbuster musical. It just happens to be made up on the spot." Metro
We are gearing up to go to the Edinburgh Festival in August after which we will be back for a regular show in London combined with touring around the British Isles and further abroad, so there should be something suitable for everyone. Check out the shows section for details.
Showstopper at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival
We love the Edinburgh Festival and couldn't bear to stay away this year. Our main show will be a high-octane, late-night affair at The Gilded Balloon from 10:50pm to midnight from 6th to 29th August (except 18th, when we wil sleep).
We've also got three super-special matinees with guests and all sorts of goodies on 10th, 17th and 24th at 3pm.
