I’ve started asking random audience members who also happen to be my friends to draw our sketches, citing some arcane law about sketch comedy events being illegal unless someone is sketching them at all times. Below are some Next Level Sketch sketches. It was an excellent show, with great performances from our cast and superContinue reading “Next Level Sketch, Hoopla at The Miller, September 28th 2021”

All of Euan’s sketches from August’s Next Level Sketch show
I had the idea of getting someone to draw our show on Tuesday, justifying it via some spurious tale of Victorian era sketch comedy legislation. Euan very gamely did so, even coming on stage after the interval to talk us through his drawings. “Jesus, Euan. I wasn’t expecting you to attempt every single one”. “IContinue reading “All of Euan’s sketches from August’s Next Level Sketch show”
Next Level Sketch with Luke Rollason and The Awkward Silence – August 31st 2021

Which seems like a strange thingContinue reading “Suburb on the Edge of Forever”
The Inaugural Next Level Sketch Awards
Wednesday was our sketch collective’s Christmas Party and awards show, which we put together to celebrate the funny stuff we somehow managed to get out over the course of what I am contractually obliged to describe as a Challenging Year.
