Join three comedians who almost certainly have no idea how to play Dungeons & Dragons, as they attempt to go on a live fantasy adventure! Questing ain't easy however, especially when the audience can mess with their dice rolls and even cast spells on them! Will our adventurers survive? Based on previous audiences, almost certainly not! No knowledge of D&D or anything like it required (rules lawyers absolutely welcome though), all you need is to be able to enjoy a bit of chaos. So come and watch some ridiculous fantasy characters make some very poor decisions!

About the show

Comedians & Dragons is a live fantasy comedy show by Stuart Kennedy at Cellar, in which three comedians attempt a Dungeons & Dragons adventure without necessarily knowing how to play. The audience can interfere with dice rolls and cast spells on the performers, making each show unpredictable. No knowledge of Dungeons & Dragons is required to enjoy the show. It runs for 60 minutes, is suitable for audiences aged 18 and over, and carries warnings for audience participation and scenes of violence.

Why see this show?

A show that genuinely cannot go the same way twice — the audience actively meddles with the adventure, and the comedians have to improvise their way through whatever chaos results. Fun for Dungeons & Dragons fans and absolute newcomers alike.
