Topping and Hards: Comedy from the Box - Brighton Fringe
Topping and Hards: Comedy from the Box
Josh Hards and Simon Topping are all at sea, they don't know what to do with their lives.

This all changes when Simon, surfing on the beige web, lands on a mysterious website (which they can never find again) and decides to spend his life savings on "The Box". "The Box" makes the boastful claim to be the finest collection of comedy sketches ever written (Duo Edition); "Guaranteed" to be the funniest series of comedy shorts that anyone has ever witnessed, but something doesn't seem quite right. Who has compiled the material and what do they want you to believe?

Come and witness the awesome comedy that lies within "The Box" as the boys unbox the scripts and perform it for the very first time, and maybe the last, before your very eyes and for your delight.

Do fame and fortune beckon or is there more to "The Box" than first appears?

Topping and Hards: Comedy From The Box is a part crafted, part improvised silly romp of a sketch show with a joy centred and surreal heart.
