The Maydays: The Fringe Show review

One thing we learn from The Maydays take on the Brighton Fringe programme is just how turgid and pretentious some of the shows on offer sound, just from their own descriptions. Thankfully, though, we don't have to endure the less promising fare first-hand, for this cheery improv troupe offer bite-sized comedy versions that probably bear no relation to the real thing.

Review - The Maydays: Happily Never After

While there were a reasonable smattering of laughs from bona fide funny lines, the show relies more for its amusement on a sense of strangeness and the occasional struggles of its talented cast with their ad-hoc logic.

The Maydays: The ten best (and worst) confessions

Improv group The Maydays' show Confessions always begins with, well, confessions. From the audience that is. Real life confessions that the group then bring to life on stage.
