How did you come up with the name of your show that your taking to the Camden fringe?

Our improvised  show follows the adventures of Star Captain and their trusty sidekick Number Two. Originally we named the show ‘The Improvised Adventures of Star Captain (and Number Two) but we ended up shortening the show name for ease! 

Tell us a little bit about your style of show?

We improvise our show as a duo. We take an audience suggestion and then Star Captain and Number Two head off for their adventures through the cosmos! We each play multiple characters throughout the show and often character swap. Look forward to comedic chaos as we can sometimes be playing six or more characters all on stage at the same time! 

What other acts are you looking forward to seeing at the fringe?

Such a brilliant selection of shows available! We love to watch and support other improvised shows so those will be first on our ‘must see’ list!
