Yes, you guessed it, Neil Haigh and Stewart Wright. As colleagues and collaborators over the last ten years, playing and toying with an array of projects, they are now excited to be harnessing their chemistry, theatrical skills and comedy talents in this brand new show.

During the beautifully awkward opening, Stewart irreverently ambushes the “rules of the workshop” leaving Neil’s lecturer character floundering. The evening then flows seamlessly from a ‘Masterclass’ gone wrong, into a mesmerisingly skilful piece of improvised theatre, created fresh for every audience.

The show is already building a following after it’s ‘work in progress nights’, and is now coming to Front Room. It hits the spot for a memorable night out with its hybrid of Whose Line Is It Anyway style impro, comic character acting, and off the cuff story telling.

The crackling combination of Neil Haigh’s experience with ground breaking improvised theatre company Cartoon De Salvo, and Stewart’s thirty years as a British comic character actor, are not to be missed.

Stewart is one of the most gifted and funniest improvisers I have ever worked with.  His natural ability to find truth and humour in every moment is a joy! Debbie Isitt, BAFTA winning film director
“You leave awestruck at the power of the imagination and feeling like you’ve just been to the best party in town” Dominic Cavendish TELEGRAPH (about Cartoon De Salvo)
‘Stewart is a rare comic talent. He wins hearts and minds wherever he performs, has the rare skills to make audiences laugh and cry at will.’ Tom Morris, Artistic Director, Bristol Old Vic 2009-2022
“Everything varies every night, except good humour. Off the cuff, but on the button!” Susannah Clapp OBSERVER (about Cartoon De Salvo)
