Joke Thieves, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe favourite, returns to the stage and embarks on a debut tour. Following a sold out run at the Fringe, Will Mars' chaotic comedy brainchild is going on the road to bring its unique form of hilarious improvised comedy to the nation as well as the far side of the globe.

Joke Thieves is the cult hit show where top comedians perform their own jokes and then each other's. Will they become flawless mimics or improvise their swag into a new direction? The fun is in the finding out.

Debuting at Edinburgh Fringe 2013, Mars' experimental show sees comedians bringing their own unique style to each other's jokes and competing for the biggest laughs in a performance which promises to offer the audience something new every time. Join regulars Stephen Carlin, Danny Ward, Jessica Fostekew, Joe Rowntree, Will Franken and Danny Pensive and guests such as Dana Alexander, Jo Caulfield, Luisa Omielan, Carl Donnelly and Paul F Taylor for this anarchic night of laughs. Previous performers have included Daniel Sloss, Marcus Brigstocke, Zoe Lyons, MickFerry, Joe Lycett, Rob Beckett, Abandoman and DesClarke.

Joke Thieves has filmed a television pilot for BBC Two, fronted by Hal Cruttenden, at the Fringe. The show was named Critic's Choice by Time Out as well as being included in their list of '10 Late Nights Out at the Fringe' and in Chortle's list of top ten format shows at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
