Off the Cuff

Off the Cuff showed great flare as usual in their entertaining improvised comedy work. Whilst they had high energy in the sketches, the audience participation is what made them extremely popular. This time round the stakes were higher as the team used what seemed like simple improvisation games, like holding a conversation starting each sentence with a corresponding letter of the alphabet, or questioning the ministry of aliens on a ‘Question Time’ style show.

They were engaging, and interesting to watch, but what made them special was their tight bond as a team – even the most bizarre suggestions were made to be seamless.
