Horrigan & Howell: A Sketch Too Far (Horrigan And Howell)
By Andrew Melrose | Published on Sunday 28 August 2022
A sketch comedy show that will keep on surprising you. This talented troupe have tightly packed as many sketches as possible into their 50 minute slot, every segment quickly transitioning into another for maximum efficiency, every scene cleverly written with unique concepts, characters and plenty of jokes. I don’t want to give too much away because it’s a show that it’s best to go into blind: this group really knows how to build up to a punchline, and not knowing where each sketch will eventually lead is part of the thrill. There was something for everyone, from dark humour to complete silliness, and – like quality TV sketch shows – it has variety and comebacks that tightly package everything together. From the very first joke, this show will certainly have you laughing throughout.
