An evening of fully improvised comedy - every Wednesday
The Line Up....
Vacuous Dullards Live
Two men. Zero social graces. Recorded on magnetic tape.
Vacuous Dullards documents the audio archives of Mark a self-appointed "analogue
lifelogger" and his best friend Mike. Having exhausted the quiet comfort of railway
platforms, the two avid trainspotters have made the brave, ill-advised decision to
broaden their adventures by visiting other British "places of interest."
You decide where they visit and then sit back and eavesdrop on the unscripted
agony of two deeply awkward homebodies attempting to interact in general public.
Vacuous Dullards Live is performed by: Mike Burton, Fergus Wynne and Mark
Smith
If you are interested you can follow along for field trips and tape hiss at the Vacuous
Dullards podcast: Available on Spotify, Apple podcasts and Amazon music.
Produced and engineered by: Neely Gale
What our audiences are saying:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "Sublime, silly and yet an utterly recognisable slice of absurdist cake..."
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "Eccentric and great improv. Loved it."
Improv On Demand
Want to see Doctor Who save the universe from a 50-foot Duncan Bannatyne? Or an episode of The Traitors settled during Bake Off's arsenic week? From breakdancing on Game of Thrones to zombies on Sesame Street, our rotating, basted and corn-fed cast will push the boundaries of what legally counts as satire for copyright purposes. Watch Improv On Demand take on your favourite TV shows, old and new, and perfectly recreate them based on audience suggestions (perfection not guaranteed).
