Following last year's sell-out run, the critically acclaimed cult hit show returns. Together with his audience, veteran improviser Elms builds a comedy mind palace before your very eyes. 'David's very clever. He's made a show that's funny, original and different every time' (Tim Key). 'A lesson in the transcendent power of collective imagining' **** (Guardian). 'A strikingly impressive feat of memory, world-building and forging of communal purpose' **** (List). 'A real triumph of the human imagination' **** (Skinny). 'One of the most original and artistic comedy shows on the fringe' **** (Chortle.co.uk).
