About the show
A Bad Taste Show is a 45-minute comedy sketch show by Wildtex Network, performed at Theatre 2 at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. The show is described as irreverent and deliberately rough around the edges — dark at times, silly at others, with audience participation throughout. It skips subtlety in favour of laughs your mother would be ashamed of. The show contains strong language, distressing themes and audience participation. Suitable for ages 16 and over; tickets priced at £11.
Why see this show?
Forty-five minutes of proudly irreverent sketch comedy at Theatre 2 — unpretentious, audience-involving, and refreshingly unbothered about good taste. At £11, it makes no promises it can't keep.
