Pappy World Record Attempt Of 200 Comedy Sketches In An Hour

Pappy World Record Attempt Of 200 Comedy Sketches In An Hour
Published 7th Jan 2010 by Komedia

Pappy's critically acclaimed, total sell out show was THE hot ticket of the Edinburgh Festival 2009. Now they embark on a national tour; ready to take the UK, and the record books, by storm.

Join them for a full night of sketches and songs and a chance to see them attempt the impossible.

200 sketches. 60 minutes. One World Record. Heroic attempt or spectacular folly?

"Whether they succeed or not, they're hilarious." (The Guardian)
With the clock ticking away and the odds stacked against them, a place in the record books is far from guaranteed. What they CAN promise is a host of outrageous characters, ridiculous sing-songs and more high-energy, uplifting post-sketch comedy than any show has ever delivered before.

Pappy's were nominated for the If.comedy award in 2007. In 2008 they won Chortle Best Sketch Act, performed in Australia and had their own shows on Channel 4 and BBC Radio 4.

"Sheer joy " - Metro
"Blissfully funny comedy " - The List
"Best in their genre " - Mirror
“Beneath the larking about there’s a painstakingly constructed hour of quick fire gags, recurring characters, and snappy songs. By the end of it, the crowd is as elated as the performers, and that’s saying something ” - Independent on Sunday

PAPPY’s visits Komedia Brighton on Thursday 22 January at 8pm. Tickets are £12 / £10 available on-line at www.komedia.co.uk/brighton or from the Box Office on 0845 293 8480.
