Our name is Damp Knight Comedy, comedians from the Humberland of the North, Generals of the Ulnar Nerve and servants to the true emperor The Tonic!.
After 10 years of perfecting our silly behaviour and chaotic games we are coming out of our shells and making our Edinburgh Fringe Debut with the brand new show – GLADIATORTOISE!
At my signal, unleash Hell-arity!
Damp Knight Comedy take elements of popular improv TV shows (such as Mock the Week, Fast and Loose & Whose Line Is It Anyway?), add their own signature brand of surreal, unpredictable spontaneity and hit fast-forward for a show of unforgettable, high-octane comedy, inspired entirely by the audience’s suggestions.
Join the Damp Knights as they invent and scramble their way through impossible situations, ridiculous games and even the odd inconceivable musical number all for your entertainment, knowing that they genuinely do not have a pre-approved script or storyline to fall back on.
Who Are Damp Knight Comedy?
Formed in 2015, creative comedy cronies ‘Damp Knight Comedy’ are a group of passionate funny peoples, performers and general ne’er-do-wells that know how to make audiences laugh but haven’t yet mastered writing a script. After many gigs round the North East and the South of Scotland, as well as several sell-out performances at The Maltings Theatre in their home town of Berwick upon Tweed, they are coming to the Edinburgh Fringe with their quick wits, stage chemistry and complete lack of shame.
Are you not entertained?!
