More details
After 2 years of chaotic one-off shows at the Edinburgh Fringe it's time for the sister show of [l]Joke Thieves] to make its full debut. It's the show where sketch groups perform their own sketches and then each others'.
In August 2014 the Joke Thieves format recorded it's very own pilot for BBC2 and is continuing to go from strength to strength in 2015. The beginning of the year saw the show embark on a World Tour, playing to packed houses in Australia, Iceland, Singapore, Hong Kong Manila and the U.K. It has also continued to flourish with regular club shows at The Stand, Edinburgh, Downstairs at the King's Head, London and let's not go forgetting the new regular show at Broadway Comedy Club, New York.
