Manchester Improv Wednesdays

The English Lounge · Manchester

An evening of fully improvised comedy - every Wednesday The Line Up.... Vacuous Dullards Live Two men. Zero social graces. Recorded on magnetic tape.

You decide where they visit and then sit back and eavesdrop on the unscripted agony of two deeply awkward homebodies attempting to interact in general public.
