Five performers are all working hard to put on a good improv show. Well, almost all of them. One of them is trying to sabotage the show without getting caught. Will The Saboteur be unmasked before the evening is ruined?
It’s a reality television show on stage, for fans of Whodunnits and Whose Line alike. It’s devious. It’s hilarious. It’s thrilling. It’s The Saboteur. Good luck.
Fresh from a hit season at the 2022 Sydney Comedy Festival, join us for a high-stakes, interactive evening of subterfuge, treachery, backstabbing, and laughs!
