Pulp Improv: New Cellars, Pembroke College, Wednesday 12th March, 8pm
Sit down and relax as Improvised Comedy Ents bring you a series of comedic tales from a world that seems strangely similar, and yet strangely different from our own. You decide what stories get told as our team of talented performers take your suggestions and weave them together into a tangled web of disgruntled employees, vicious criminals and mysteriously knowledgeable monks.
Just what is the secret that lurks at Joe's farm? What's in the briefcase that everyone's dying to get hold of? And which stories are actually parts of a greater whole, entangled with each other as the plot threads weave through the night? You decide!
ICE: Head To Head: King's College, Chetwynd Room, Friday 8th February, Friday 22nd February and Friday 7th March, 7:30pm

All the action is under your control as expert performers spontaneously create drama, passion, intrigue and romance in front of your very eyes. Well, maybe a bit. Mostly it's just hilarious fast-paced comedy!
Who murders whom? Who falls in love with whom? What could possibly come between the happy couple? Will Lord Fotheringale ever live down the embarrassing wombat incident of last night's dinner party? You get to choose!
Jeeves and Wooster meets Carry On meets AN ADDITIONAL THIRD CONTRASTING THING! The play will be lovingly created on the spot for you by our expert improvisers, so there is only one chance to see this unique and perfect creation. It has never been seen before and will never been seen again! No Scripts, no Rehearsals, no Kenneth Williams!
