Rhinoceros’ Big Friday

Fast-paced character driven comedy.

As the lion sleeps in the mighty jungle, this crash of Rhinos will be hitting the Rosemary Branch with their unique brand of fast-paced character driven comedy.

Join Rhinoceros for a Big Friday night of alternative comedy. Joined by an all-star guest line-up of some of London's funniest people, Rhinoceros’s Big Friday provides you with a variety of improv, character, sketch, clown, and everything in between. All rounded off with a high-speed set of long form improvised comedy from the hosting team Rhinoceros.

Always with a welcoming atmosphere and whole load of laughs, you won't find a better Big Friday night of weird, wacky and wonderful entertainment.

Rhinoceros are one of the hottest improv comedy teams on the London circuit today. Using suggestions from the audience, Rhinoceros weave into being a show of big and silly laughs, improvised there and then on the spot, in front of your very eyes. It’s guaranteed to be a show never before seen, and never to be seen again!

Special guest acts joining Rhinoceros:

CHEEKYKITA

‘Like Spike Milligan on MDMA.’ (The List)

Multi award winning Comedian Cheekykita has shared bills with Alan Davies, Robin Ince, Simon Munnery, Tony Law, Harry Hill, Spencer Jones, and many more and recently appeared at The BBC tent at Edinburgh festival.

'Like Alice in Wonderland on Adderall... curious, shambolic and kind of magical' (according to The List), this Prague Fringe 2014 award-winner has performed her peculiarly charming brand of comedy in and around the UK and abroad.

PROJECT2

Project2 are Katy Schutte & Chris Mead. Every performance is a new science fiction show. They play with new styles, narratives, dramaturgy and structures each time they step on stage. No two shows are remotely alike - sometimes light & funny, sometimes deep & foreboding but always true to the complex and ever-changing genre of science fiction. Founded in 2012, Project2 continue to teach and perform throughout Europe, with a residency at Hoopla Impro in London.
