A bright red storm in a broken tea cup, clasped in the crooked hands of the human condition, fighting for breath at the end of the world…
Winner: Best Sketch Show
Amused Moose Comedy Award
‘Sketch by punchy sketch, the pair maintain a high standard.’
Guardian

But don’t panic – we’re safe down here. This is sketch comedy, remember?

Grubby Little Mitts are back with their third magnum opus. Amplifying the normal to chaotic extremes, their signature surrealist style is more affronting, confronting and stunting than ever, with rapid dialogue, musical interludes and an aggressively red aesthetic decomposing the genre like never before.

From familial ties to unrequited love, through “Supporting Artists” and the Eurasian Eagle Owl, not even the civil service is safe…

Don’t text him back. Don’t forget the milk. And don’t look up…
