The comedy panel show for goblins 'n' geeks. Imagine Dungeons & Dragons. But funny. And with kids. What could possibly go wrong...
The mainstream comedy panel show, with top comedian guests, is back from a live tour of New York and LA. Their TV pilot was recently filmed in LA but you can catch the show live in Edinburgh. Performing for 10 dates only. Do not miss out.
This year we have two entry methods: Free & Unticketed or Pay What You CanFree & Unticketed: Entry to a show is first-come, first served at the venue - just turn up and then donate to the show in the collection at the end.Pay What You Can: For these shows you can book a ticket to guarantee entry and choose your price from the Fringe Box Office, up to 30 mins before a show. After that all remaining space is free at the venue on a first-come, first-served bases. Donations for walk-ins at the end of the show.
There are a few Dungeons & Dragons-adjacent shows on this year. This one has a digital element, using a Table Top Roleplaying Game platform to display the action on large screens. Whilst visually arresting, it does jar a little in not fully aligning with the live experience – for instance when you have a fearsome looking giant on the screen voiced by a comedian stood right in front of you. That said, it’s an entertaining intro to the game, with a mix of puzzle-solving, interaction, exploration and combat all moved along by our engaging dungeon master and supporting cast. The adventure we played certainly emphasised the importance of checking for traps, but there are no major pitfalls to be found with this show. Click Here For Review
