2011 Edinburgh Fringe

More details

Hotly tipped new sketch group Sheeps bring their first full show to the Edinburgh Fringe, following a series of regular sell-out London shows at the Etcetera Theatre and Pleasance Islington.

Sheeps: A Sketch Show brings together a selection of sketches, skits, characters and songs including a medley of showtunes from Sheeps' original musical adaptation of Oliver Twist, shrewdly observed and abstract sketches and at least five minutes of material that's been cut from the show.
