Hosted by Australian comedian Kurt Sterling, Big Oops is an interactive comedy show in which top improvisers act out the audience's most embarrassing anonymous confessions live on stage, with the biggest oops winning a prize.

Featuring a rotating cast of top improvisers, the show runs for 60 minutes at Just The Cask Room. Adults only, with audience participation throughout. Tickets are £10 with a concession of £5.
Why see this show?
The anonymous confessions format means every performance is shaped by whoever's in the room that night. The improvisers make gold from whatever the audience hands them — it is a reliably unpredictable night out.
