Scandalgate

Scandalgate hilariously details the untold stories of the corrupt and the incompetent, the chancers, the well-meaning, the vaguely competent and the persevering underdog – completely improvised in the world of the media, business and politics.

These are the scandals yet to be 'gated' on a Twitter thread, tabloid front page splash or Substack blog; the MP who rigged their village fete's best jam competition, the journalist secretly using chatGPT to win their Pulitzer prize or the CEO of a tech firm whose new app was inadvertently designed by a baby.

Thematically, think Succession, The Newsroom and House of Cards, thrown in a blender with The Thick of It and Veep.

The cast includes some of the US and UK’s finest long-form comedy improvisers. It is directed by The Descendant’s Leo Maxwell also in cast and stars Alex Berr Winner: the improvised sports biopic, Dana Birch City Squirrels at The Second City, Adam Deane Kerfuffle, Ed Fargher The Maydays, Karlie Menzel Juice, Slumber Party, Alex Murdoch Alex & Siobhan, Teresa Senyah Michelle, Mixed Omens, Tom Webster The RH Experience and Jess Williamson The Descendants.
