This Is Soap: The Improvised Soap Opera C Theatre 4 Star ****

| On 09, Aug 2013

 

Improv comedy has been around for a long time and each year I think surely it has had it’s day, but every year another bunch of young comics prove me wrong.

C Theatre have been running this show for numerous years too, and it is always a good example of what is good in the style.

The audience suggestions are turned into a ‘Soap’ daily as the six actors and a MC devise and deliver an episode in the space of an hour, and they do it every day.

The episode I saw took us into the world of Life Enders and the characters who inhabit the area. Situations are given to them as they play out a storyline using may od the devices that are integral to this genre.

Okay sometime the plots have wholes you could drive a bus through, but the laughs come thick and fast and yeas, the odd groan or too along the way.

If you are looking for a jovial way to start off the Fringe day why not give this a go and you don’t need to be a soap fan to do so either.
