About this show
Guilty or innocent? You decide! The unmissable, award-winning, critically acclaimed courtroom roast returns! You accuse friends and family of crimes, and top comedians take on the roles of judge and defense lawyers, hearing testimony, cross-examining witnesses, and improvising their arguments for each case. It’s up to you the audience as jury to deliver your verdict. Never the same show twice, a must-do Fringe experience! 'A perfect bit of improv mayhem' * (Mirror). 'Inventive, intelligent comedy' (Scotsman).
