"Punters sample incredible Fringe talent; performers get more audience at their own Fringe show..."

Answered by: Anne Mayer

Describe your show in a tweet? Like Whose Line, Best-of-the-Fest national and international improvisers battle it out with comedy sketches based on audience suggestions.

What was the inspiration behind your show? To create a win/win/win. Punters sample incredible Fringe talent; performers get more audience at their own Fringe show; I get a first-class performance (that's in its 12th consecutive year!). Plus it's improvised so it's always fresh... and no rehearsals!

Tell us a bit about the creative team working on this project? The creative team are the performers because it's totally improvised! Plus the audience because it's their suggestions (written on arrival or yelled out). This makes the show unique. I guess that's one reason why we sell out every year.

What do you love about Fringe and why? SO much fun, talent and camaraderie for four weeks! What wouldn't you love about that! Adelaide totally comes alive and the buzz on the streets is incomparable. I'm so excited and privileged to be part of it for so long.

When and where is your Fringe show? 14, 21 & 28 Feb, 6 Mar, Cinema 8, Palace Nova. It's the best venue because you can drink during the show!
