Next Level Sketch with Jamie Mykaela, Mikey Bligh-Smith, Michael Brunström and The Mayor and His Daughter
Hello! I did the Treason Show for the first time, and am back in London with some cats. I sometimes find it difficult to sleep after a show, and so after a few aborted attempts at no longer being conscious, I thought I’d write a short post about last week’s Next Level Sketch, which was… Read more

Next Level Sketch at Bristol Improv Theatre with Up The Antics and The Artist Formerly Known As Banana
I wrote this post yesterday and accidentally hit “discard” before publishing, sending it down the nothingness pipe into the memory hole of forever. So writing about our show again feels very strange – like anything I say here will be a mere shadow of whatever it was I wrote yesterday. And of course, whatever I… Read more

Next Level Sketch with Katie McCleod, Chuck ‘n’ Jeck and Rob Duncan
There has been a lot going on with me recently, more on this to come in future blog posts. A lot of you out there already know what I’m talking about. So my own personal desire for the last Next Level Sketch before our summer hiatus was to get through it without falling over or… Read more

Spooky Baby: A Next Level Sketch
Cheers once again to Alex and the team at Orca Comedy for expertly filming another sketch from our bulging oeuvre. We’ve had assorted Halloween specials at Hoopla since 2020, and this sketch is one of my favourites because it’s just so winningly stupid. And I think the extra lines added about The Cure and new… Read more

Next Level Sketch with Will Sebag-Montefiore, Jen Zheng, and The Awkward Silence
I dashed off to Istanbul straight after our show, and so didn’t have time for my usual, far-too-long write-up. But I wanted to write down a few things, as it was another fabulous night at Hoopla Impro, with some of my favourite people. Self-criticism corner first: I probably should have prepared better for hosting. I’m… Read more

Some days you’ve just got to get in a bin
I wrote before about how Next Level Sketch are filming a few sketches, and how I feel about that. Having missed the first batch of filming due to cat commitments, Dan asked me to play the non-speaking role of “furious neighbour” in his sketch about a man who is really, really, really obsessed with the… Read more

Next Level Sketch with Mark Silcox, Nikola McMurtie and Thick ‘n’ Fast
One of the best shows. I go on far too long in these post-show blog posts, so I’ll just share some personal highlights via that last refuge of the feckless, the bullet point: Read more

Larry The Chimp: a sketch by Next Level Sketch
We’ve done a video sketch! It was recorded while I was away with Yorkist cats, written by Jamie, filmed, produced and edited by Alex, and stars Greg, Dan, Jamie and Naomi. I had nothing to do with it whatsoever, but I’m sharing it anyway, because everyone did a brilliant job and – excitingly – we… Read more

Next Level Sketch with Vidya Divakaran, Chris East, Al Nash and Rosalie Minnitt
I took a break from being in the Next Level cast this month, but was still roped in for hosting duties. I happily accepted this: it’s nice to feel wanted. So instead of the usual pre-show rehearsal and running around in a panic, I was able to have a beer downstairs with Paul and King… Read more
