Roast Battle (+ Live Stream)

The show that turns smack talk into an art form! Roast Battle Edinburgh puts comedians head-to-head in a battle of verbal onslaughts. Not for the faint-hearted, each battler has five roast jokes to defeat their opponent.

"Undeniably, Roast Battle doesn't fail to live up to its expectations, serving to showcase a no-holds-barred contest of comedic athleticism, brazen putdowns and lightning-fast comebacks" ★★★★★ (BroadwayBaby.com).
