Late Night Gimp Fight

After a successful run at the Edinburgh Fringe and festival dates across the country, Late Night Gimp Fight returned to its spiritual home of Brighton with more sketches pushing the limits of depravity and probably breaking a few public-decency laws too. Despite being one gimp down, the group put on a buoyant performance to a somewhat modestly-sized crowd. Beyond the crass nature of their humour, the inventiveness of their visual aesthetic, concealment of punchlines and slick production is what takes this show far above most other live comedy sketch shows – and those found on television too! Utterly filthy, wildly funny, the Gimps are kings of comedy.
