A SPORTS-themed comedy show will take place at The Way Theatre/Studio in Atherton tomorrow night, Saturday.

The event at the Victoria Mill theatre will involve two teams who will battle for laughs from the audience.

They will use quick-witted gags, games, sketches and songs inspired by spectators’ suggestions.

The unscripted show, called ComedySportz, will involve a referee to ensure there is a clean match with penalties handed out for bad jokes and behaviour.

The group is in its 17th year and includes regular faces at The Edinburgh Fringe and comedians who have performed in front of Prince Edward.

Tickets are priced at £7 for adults and £5 for concessions.

They can be paid for on the door or in advance click here.
