‘They want to extend the Northern line, but I think this is Morden adequate.’
Abandoman
‘Improv and musical comedy? The two least cool comedy genres.’ We hear you, but Abandoman are the exception. They turn audience suggestions into sharp-witted raps. And not hilarious-because-they’re-deliberately-terrible comedy raps; these are proper rhymezzz, with three Zs.
Showstoppers
Less rap, more tap here. Showstoppers perform a totally improvised musical, complete with story arcs, harmonies and jazz hands. Some are convinced it must all be rehearsed – it’s that impressive.
Result
Abandoman win.
