Balderdash Academy: Shoreditch Street Art Comedy Tour

Join City Impro’s Balderdash Academy as a first year art student where the dysfunctional professors take you on an immersive and improvised tour of museums and places of interest.

According to the Academy Dean, this month it’s culture month and so 3 unfortunate university professors must somehow struggle through discussing trendy street art with all the help they can get from their students.

Marvel at the sixteen foot tall dinosaur made of biscuits, ponder the ethics of mongolian paint dancing, and make your professors’ lives difficult as you question their ability to recall “facts”.

Tour meets 14.30 outside Shoreditch Highstreet Overground Station.

All tours are unaffiliated with the museums they visit and everything you hear will be made up on the spot based on your suggestions. Participants must be over 16 year’s old. For outside walking tours please be prepared for poor weather and wear appropriate clothing/footwear.

City Impro’s Balderdash Serial Killer Tour

Book tickets here!

Join Balderdash University as a first year art student where the dysfunctional professors take you on an immersive and improvised tour of museums, historic locations and places of interest. Treat yourself to an alternative look at life.

According to the Balderdash University Dean, it’s time to “diversify our earning potential” and, by total coincidence, the government are outsourcing police training to Balderdash University. You join the force as a rookie cop, looking to enter the elite serial killer division of the London Met Police. The problem is your Senior Officers are aged 1970’s style officers forced to train you just before retirement and you’ll be helping with the one case they couldn’t crack: The Protractor. No pressure.

Your Senior Officers will struggle through the evening with your helpful suggestions on the names of the victims, the murder weapons, and the unexpected clues. Can you help solve the case? Will your insight make the difference? Only time will tell…

Warning: this is an improvised tour where everything is completely untrue and made up on the spot.

All tours are unaffiliated with the museums or places of note they visit and everything you hear will be made up on the spot based on your suggestions. Appropriate for ages 18+ only.
