Celia Dugua & Berk's Nest in association with PBJ Management presents:

David Elms Describes a Room – The 100th Show Special!

Wed 20 May 26 60 minutes
After a total sell-out run at the Edinburgh Fringe and a whirlwind year of critical acclaim, David Elms invites you to a milestone celebration of his cult-hit phenomenon. 

It’s an object(less) lesson in the transcendent power of collective imagining, and in how little is needed to bring a story and performance to life. It’s also a lovely, skilful and understated hour of extempore comedy’
Guardian

Part improv, part storytelling, and entirely unique, this is the 100th time David will step onto a stage to describe a room that isn’t there with you, the audience.

Come and be part of this very special show with a limited edition “Describer” cap included in the price of your ticket!

It is rare for an improvised show to break into the mainstream awards circuit, but David Elms Describes a Room has done just that. A firm Chortle favorite, the show earned a glowing 4-star review and a spot on Steve Bennett’s “Most Memorable Shows of 2025” list. It also secured a prestigious Chortle Award nomination, a rare feat for the medium.

Please note that this performance is being filmed for marketing purposes and social media. By entering the venue, you acknowledge that your image, voice and likeness may appear in the final content piece.
