NewsRevue at Canal Café Theatre

The Guinness World Record- breaking, longest- running, live comedy show on the planet, continues to delight and provide a welcome outlet to audiences at its home in Little Venice with a cast change every 6 weeks throughout the year. This upcoming run will feature an alumni cast and have an exclusive three-week transfer to Seven Dials Playhouse! 

The current affairs parody song and sketch show is acknowledged as a “rite of passage for all comedy newcomers” (Chortle).  

Part of NewsRevue’s longevity is its innate ability to provide the audience with sensitively timed material that punches up not down whilst propelling you through the news of the world at breakneck pace. Brand new topical content is injected into the show weekly by a team of writers and the cast alike. In this up-coming run you can expect the usual suspects such as: An earworm of an ABBA opener, plenty of awards season parody and some exclusive West-End themed content.   

Alumni include: The League of Gentlemen, Sara Pascoe, Bill Bailey, Saskia Reeves and Michelle Collins. The quadruple threat performers i.e: acting, singing, dancing comedians are described as having “Herculean levels of talent” (WhatsOnStage.com), together with an on-stage musical director, they receive 5-star reviews at Edinburgh Fringe Festival every year.
