About the show
This Is Your Trial! The Fully-Improvised Comedy Courtroom is an immersive improv comedy show by RGB Monster in association with This Is Your Laugh, performed at Hoot 2. Audience members accuse friends and family of crimes, and top comedians take on the roles of judge and defence lawyers, hearing testimony, cross-examining witnesses and improvising their arguments for each case. The audience serves as jury and delivers the verdict. No two shows are ever the same. Running 60 minutes and suitable for ages 16 and up, it involves audience participation and strong language.
Why see this show?
A Fringe crowd-pleaser where the audience drives the action — you pick the accused, the comedians improvise the case, and the jury is you. Unpredictable, interactive and reliably chaotic fun.
