The Shambles



The Shambles are York's premier improvised comedy troupe, where our scenes are based entirely on your suggestions.

The Shambles started in Autumn 2006, led by Jenny Hibberd of the Oxford Imps, and are York's premier improvised comedy troupe, performing at the University of York, around the York area, and the Edinburgh Fringe. Our shows are based around different games, in the style of the popular TV show "Who's Line is it Anyway". Some of our games are popular classics, whilst others have been invented by Shambles members. Every show however is unique, as all scenes are based entirely upon audience suggestions, and sometimes they may even be called to participate.

Catch us in C Venues at the 2012 Edinburgh Fringe. We're here from 2nd - 18th August. Bring your friends, bring your family, but most importantly... bring your suggestions.
