Latest Review!

6 Apr

With great thanks to ThePubicReviews for our latest review!

“Their unique brand of comedy certainly pulled in young students looking for a tongue-in-cheek laugh”

“Improvisation games they played throughout the show were original, hilarious and thoroughly provoked the audience into a state of raucous participation”

“The Antics style is unique and brave, relying the success of a performance solely on the wit of their audience, coaxing them to yell out words at random to guide and direct the boys’ performance.”

“No matter what the audience, or ’flip-chart fairy’ wanted The Antics to do, the young performers delivered with remarkably fast pace and comic timing.”

“The Antics delivered their unique brand of improvised comedy, for a student audience willing to lap up both the wit and the silliness from these confident and original young performers.”

Update!

The journey back

13 Aug

So we’re all done. The final show was a great success, being our second biggest selling date of the run.

Myself (Gav), Colin, Brad and Mark are currently travelling back on the train in standard class.

Dan has just departed, having been accompanying Darell, Tom and Jonny in 1st class. They made sure we knew about their fancy advantages. Yeh anyway…

Word goes out to…

- Max, who is probably still in Edinburgh right now, and has to endure 14 hour bus journey back to Wiltshire. Haha.

- Daniel Fenton for making an appearance and seeing our show today. A true Antics legend, and the 2nd year running he has come to see us at Edinburgh!

- Charlie who left way too early today, and missed our last show! Gutted.

- Finally, Ashley McDowell who missed the 2nd half of our Fringe stay, to return to the delightful area of Manchester. We wish him well.

Well that’s about it, this is Gav signing off.
We should be back at Hallam in September for a Freshers show, so look out for that.
