Advice for the Treason Show

hi I have, thanks to your threads discovered that theres more than newsjack to write for. I am interested in writing for newsrevue - I've emailed them for guidlines and waiting for response - and the treason show. Any advice on what kind of sketches would be welcome on the latter (or former actually) as in is it government heavy or celeb gossip etc.
Also has anyone ever recycled turned down newsjack sketches and sent them to treason or newsrevue?

They'll be lots of advice from a lot of members but the most important thing you can do for yourself is to a) actually see the show and b) write a 'nob' gag for Treason founder, Mark Brailsford (seriously).

Of course the very existence of Mark Brailsford's nob gags may mean that sensitive souls may wish to avoid seeing the show in the flesh (as it were).

I was there at the very beginning and should have done something to stop it but I just wasn't strong enough. For those of us who have seen it - survivors - the memory lingers.

The only sketch I had accepted by Treason did indeed involve Mark flashing his knob.

The show is quite fun, if not for the faint-hearted; they do ocassionally tour, so you might not need to get down to Brighton.

This thread has brought up a difficult subject again. Is it "nob" or "knob"? Which do you prefer? Text 9987 for I LIKE NOB and 9988 for I LIKE KNOB.
