Experiments include:

ROLE REVERSAL
Two pro comics swap sets for the show! Each comedian prepares a 5 minute comedy performance of the other's material, putting their own spin on the jokes.

PUNCHLINE
In this experiment based on the internationally popular "Setlist" format, a pro comic will deliver an improvised set based on bespoke written prompts they have NO warning of before being onstage, which are revealed to both them and the audience at the same time!

DRUNK DEBATES
Two comics get drunk & debate a topic. Neither knows in advance what it is. The audience and they find out at the same time - watch two great comics match wits with their faculties impaired!

ROAST BATTLE

QUESTION TIME
In this reverse-crowdwork segment a pro comedian will do an entire set based on audience questions - nothing pre-written, nothing pre-prepared! Have a burning desire to put a comic in the hot-seat? Don't miss this!

THE BEN RUSSELL EXPERIENCE
In this experiment, internationally acclaimed standup & improviser Ben Russell (Aunty Donna's Big Ol' House of Fun) takes control over another comedian's performance, as he jumps in to derail their standup set whenever he wants.
