COMEDY

The Improv Scotland Podcast is – quite simply – a podcast to promote improv in Scotland. Every fortnight, Mark Craig will gather a few talented Scotland-based improvisers and play silly games and perform made-up scenes in the vicinity of a microphone. These will then be presented to you for your listening pleasure!

12 - Exquisite Smelling Legs

For this episode Mark Craig is joined by Paul Connolly, Eric Geistfeld and Tom Pennock - under their own free will and with absolutely no violent coercion - in order to bring you silly games and made-up scenes! They show off their impeccable geography skills regarding New Brunswick, Switzerland and San Mantino, talk to a real life Edinburgh tram and then specifically don't do a scene about squirrels!

11 - King Raccoon

Praise be to Wall! In this episode Mark Craig can barely control the hilarious antics of Pint and a Half - the duo made up of Sam Irving and Will Naameh - as they perform silly made-up scenes and push the boundaries of what is considered comically decent! Listen in wonder as they delve into the seedy rivalries of lycanthrope soap-stars, remark on the prominence of facial hair in Greek mythology and discover the real reason George R. R. Martin is taking so long to finish the Song of Ice and Fire series! Read more »

The Queen wins an Emmy and then gets lost at a doctor's, we have yet another mention of three time Oscar-winner Daniel Day-Lewis and we finish on a frankly obscene game set in a Debenhams!

In honour of his birthday Mark Craig is joined by Paul Connolly and Nicola Dove for some celebratory silliness and improvised scenes on the latest Improv Scotland Podcast!

5 - Hot Soapy Bath

It's a special episode of the Improv Scotland Podcast this week, comprising of unheard scenes and games from previous shows and a 'pilot' recording we did before the first episode!

Improv is a difficult format to conquer, some of the sketches here do not work, the repetition of a curse word in one sketch borders on juvenile. Perhaps the rougher edges will be honed in time.
