After selling out their 2018 and 2019 Brighton Fringe shows and lighting up The Warren’s Summer Season, Do the Thing are here for you in 2021. Each night a new comedy musical packed with catchy tunes and ludicrous characters will be made up on the spot by a cast of two and an orchestra of one. It really shouldn’t work but it does.

Chaotic but polished, always on the verge of breaking down but comes together in the end, consitently daft but sometimes intelligent. They are a firm Fringe favourite and tickets will go fast so don’t you miss out!

Do the Thing are Tim Meredith (the multi-award-winning Stellar Firma podcast, Tiny Dynamite), Simon Plotkin (Gerald Galbraith: Troubadour, Off the Cuff), and Ian Scott ( Off the Cuff).

“A talented three-piece who are often hilarious and always entertaining; one of the best musical improv troupes on the circuit” ★★★★½ (The Reviews Hub)

It's really just about the things which it's about, so if you like things, this is the show for you. "Sharply-observed, never unkind, very funny... Always a riveting performer" (Buxton Fringe Review) "Very funny, reminiscent of W***y A***n in his early-'60s stand-up years (Pioneer Press, Minneapolis) "All the wit and timing of an accomplished road comic" (Winnipeg Free Press) "Hilarious" (Dominion Post, New Zealand) "Ronnie Corbett with Tourette's" (Signifying Nothing, Buxton) "Harris is a brilliant, engaging, dynamic and hilarious performer ... but I'm not sure we can really add 'polished'" (The Visitorium, Ottawa)
