Stupid is a chaotic two-prov joyride. Inspired by UCB Game style and the anarchic DNA of Reeves & Mortimer and Mayall & Edmondson.Stupid is an improvised comedy duo created by The Atom Improv, one of the UK’s few American-style long-form improv comedy companies. Inspired by audience suggestions, the pair of fast-thinking fools create comedic scenes that thematically link while bouncing off one another. And, as the name suggests, things soon get silly...
Not only does the duo make it up as they go along, they also play multiple characters within scenes, and, at times, swap and play each other's characters. Watching them skilfully keep pace with their own spontaneous creation not only adds to the fun but makes the show feel instantly kinetic.
The show is joyful, daring and very, very stupid.
Stupid stars Mike Burton and Al Donohoe, two seasoned performers with decades of stage experience under their belts. They’ve been performing together to sell out Liverpool rooms regularly since 2021.
This show is part of the Greater Manchester Improv Festival (GMIF) 5th-7th June 2026. From up and coming acts to award-winning show the festival showcases local talent and visiting shows.
