Showstopper! The Improvised Musical Theatre Break
The Showstoppers return to E4 Udderbelly Festival for a third year. A brand new musical is created from scratch at each performance of this
award-winning production, as heard on BBC Radio Four. Audience suggestions help to create a show on the spot, as the all-singing, all-dancing cast improvise with unpredictable and hilarious results.
"Having now seen Showstopper! twice, I can testify that not only is each performance achingly funny, it's a genuinely new full-length musical every time. Top-class in creativity in action. Worth seeing again and again."

- British Theatre Guide

- What's On Stage
