Offering a full range of stand-up, sketch and character work (with a surprise or two thrown in to boot) 28 Acts In 28 Minutes is delivered with an urgency that'll make for a truly unique experience.

Filmed as live, the action takes place on five stages with the studio audience stood in the centre between them. They are literally sent spinning as the comedy hits them hard from each stage in turn.
