It's the grand final of the Gilded Balloon and Sketch Club's exciting new competition for sketch and character comedy writers and performers. In front of a panel of expert judges from the comedy industry, the winners of six London heats battle it out in Edinburgh for the big title - the winning act landing themselves a full three week run at the Gilded Balloon next year. It's a show no comedy fan will want to miss. The stars of the future today. 'Sketch Club is mesmerising ... flashes of true brilliance' (Time Out).
