Creature from the Unknown

Content warning [May contain spoilers]

Some stories were meant to stay unwritten.

On dimly lit Victorian streets, gentlemen, ladies and the occasional cockney street urchin go about their lives. Unbeknownst to them, they are being watched. In the shadows, ready to wreak havoc on their lives, lurks a being that can only be described as TBC. A vampire? A were-pig? A living Tickle-Me-Elmo? Whatever form it takes, it spells danger for those in its path, and you can’t escape what you don’t know…

Creature from the Unknown unites some of Cambridge’s finest improvisers to bring your nightmares to life. Watch as they produce a brand-new gothic horror before your very eyes with only your suggestions and their razor-sharp wit. Whether it’s from laughter or a monster’s claws, you’ll be sure to leave in stitches.

This production is suitable for ages 16 and over.
