This month under the Spotlight we have Channel Hoppers and Neon Blossom.

* Channel Hoppers *

Biscuit Chair presents Channel Hoppers - an improvised comedy show, conceived during the 'Creating a Show' course at the BIT, loosely inspired by the hit TV format Gogglebox.

The show is driven by the audience - their suggestions for a TV show, film, or genre determine the content. We start by meeting the initial ‘watchers’ on the couch, distinct characters with unique dynamics. Sitting down to watch some TV, they select the first piece of content, and the rest of the cast performs an improvised, unique interpretation of it on the 'TV screen'.

The watchers wield the ultimate control: they can pause, rewind, or fast-forward the action, forcing instant, often hilarious, adjustments from the performers.

As the channel changes and the cast rotates, we get a fresh mix of relationships and comedic connections on the couch, ensuring the show remains dynamic and unpredictable.

* Neon Blossom *

Laurence and Ben offer a double-prov where the format will be decided after the audience suggestion. Increasing the anxiety and blood pressure of anyone who has booked them, because there's no telling what's these lads are going to do.
