Book NowAbout the show
Off With Your Head! is a free interactive comedy game show from Bowtie Productions, RGB Monster and Free Festival, performed at the Main Cellar. Audiences enter a throne room and vote on the fates of two guest performers vying to rule the kingdom. Players can take on roles as peasants, warlords or dragons, or simply cheer from the sidelines as events unfold in one hundred percent ridiculous improvised chaos. The show merges the language of video games and tabletop roleplaying into a live comedy format. Hosted by Sam See and Stephen Case of Tanuki Games, it runs for 60 minutes and is for ages 18 and over.
Why see this show?
Genuinely choose-your-own-adventure comedy where the audience has real power over what happens next. Free to attend, completely unpredictable, and hosted by an energetic duo who keep the chaos moving — a strong pick if you fancy something utterly silly.
