Recently released from The Oxford School of Drama, Laughing Stock combine fast-paced, witty dialogue with physical tomfoolery and musical ineptitude to bring you their very own brand of idiocy. A colourful, absurd and largely pointless collection of sketches from an absurd and pointless collection of misfits, in colourful polo necks.

Mini Cheddah

Folksy musician Bella doesn’t realise what she is letting herself in for when her producers team her up with a performer who has his own weird agenda. Described by the judges as a “brilliant musical sketch about the pitfalls of collaboration” this short film won first prize in the Comedy Crown TV award in 2020.. It was written by and stars the sketch group Laughing Stock, whose members are Rhys Bevan, Lewis Doherty, Arabella Gibbins and Phoebe Higson
