Recommended by Comedy.co.uk

A superb hour of very funny, inventive sketches about the group's travels; from a night in a Transylvanian hotel, to a plane crash and a meeting with a centaur, plus the best song about walls you'll ever hear.


Sleeping Trees have been travelling around the world! They've been scuba-diving at the Great Barrier Reef, trekking the ancient Inca trails of Peru and gone dogging in Blackpool. But what starts as an innocent journey of discovery soon leads to an intricate series of events, culminating in the secret mission to end all missions. A story of love, revenge and friendship, and by friendship, we mean revenge. 'Love child of Monty Python and The League of Gentlemen' (Time Out). 'Phenomenal performers, brimming with verve and fizzing with invention' (Chortle.co.uk). Winners: Merv's Spirit of the Fringe 2017.
