“Refreshingly different, side-achingly funny, just pure comic genius.”
BBC Radio 

"Utterly hilarious, a random selection of ideas, perhaps, but the way in which the actors weave seamlessly between the different scenes, bringing you back to the funnier characters and moments and creating ‘something’ of a story from nothing is nothing short of incredible"
The Public Reviews (5 stars)

"Truly imaginative humour"
Remote Goat

“Clever, funny, unsettling in parts and totally captivating.”
Liverpool Daily Post

"An evening you will not forget for a while, mind-bogglingly clever, devastatingly funny, entirely original comedy.” 
 Liverpool Confidential


"That is one of the special things about going to Hoof – is that as an audience you feel you are all in it together – you are with the actors as they read the scene, transform themselves and the stage and take you to a different place – usually with hilarious consequences"
The Public Reviews (5 stars)

Hoof! is the most thrilling, truly live theatre in the UK. A bare stage transforms into a visual, verbal and musical feast as five physical performers and a musician catapult the audience into a totally improvised world.

Hoof! is not improv games but two entire plays improvised quite literally on the Hoof, based on a unique form of spontaneous theatre previously only performed in the USA. The show has quickly become cult viewing, selling-out around the UK and at its monthly Unity performances.

Following training and work with Todd Stashwick and John Thies from Burn Manhattan and The Hothouse Impro Studio in Los Angeles we launched ourselves into 5 years of sold out shows – with no plan!

The Hoof Ensemble:-
Glenn Noble, Mark Smith, Simon James, Paul Duckworth, Kate Crossley, Fillipo Fiori, Ann Farrar, Jamie Greer, Matthew Wood, Steve Wallis, Chris Nelson, Tim Hibberd, Justin Bremmen, Mary Cummings, Gavin Robertson, Jonathan Raison, Keddy Sutton, Denise Kenedy, Ian Davies, Liam Tobin, Andy Frizzel, Paul Skinner, Mike Wight, Todd Stashwick, Phil Saunders
