Today's idea - Off the Cuff at Upstairs at Three and Ten

Last time we listed Brighton comedy troupe Off The Cuff, they sold out before the event began. This time, if you're keen to see the Improv group hailed by Fringe guides and blamed for leaving people "heartened and exhilarated" return to Upstairs at Three and Ten we suggest you book in advance. N.b if you're interested in trying your hand at improv, they also gold an open rehearsal every week, which is free to attend (email sjduggan[at]googlemail.com).

The "most exciting, unpredictable and frequently just plain mental comedy your senses can feasibly experience. No script, no safety nets, no elbow pads; only your suggestions and raw, unpasteurised wit," rave the box office.

Today's idea - Improv comedy tonight at Upstairs at Three and Ten

As is traditional it involves audience members shouting obscure places, names and moods at actors who turn it into something odd, mad, and very funny. Sketches can be short or long-form and are based solely around the audience. I want to stick in a clip of that 80s Improv show in which Eddie Izzard plays guest one day, and much stomping around the studio playing grocers and nazi (or some such ilk) occurs. If you know it, let me know.

Brighton's Off the Cuff formed in 2005 and have been in Brighton Fringe merrily making noise since 2006. They perform around the country, and are meant to be just a tad brilliant. Tonight at Upstairs at Two and Ten (10 Steine Street) you can catch them for £7 - £5 if you're a concession. They start at 8pm, and look to be the best Improv in Brighton.
