Newcastle's legendary Improv Comedy troupe return from lockdown with 80 minutes of spontaneous, socially distanced, un-sanitised hilarity, all based on your suggestions.

If you like Whose Line is it Anyway? you’ll LOVE the Suggestibles. Their show is a speeding rollercoaster of improv games, skits, sketches and songs – including ‘Aspects Of …’ their ingenious improvised musical. The team is boldly theatrical, wildly irreverent and utterly hilarious.
