The Comedy Store Players
The Comedy Store Players have been wowing audiences for many years with their improvisational skills, creating unique shows every Sunday in the heart of London’s West End. The concept is simple – the team will ask the audience for suggestions of locations, genres and characters, then improvise hilarious scenes and sketches around those ideas. No two performances are ever the same and the only limit is your imagination!
The Comedy Store Players are Neil Mullarkey, Josie Lawrence, Richard Vranch, Lee Simpson and Ruth Bratt. They perform an entirely different improvised comedy show every Sunday at the London Comedy Store.
On Sunday 26th October the Players will be celebrating their 40th birthday. They are the Guinness World Record holder for the longest running comedy show with the same core team, and they were presented with the Legend of Comedy Award at the 2025 Leicester International Comedy Festival.
They have performed at Shakespeare's Globe annually since 1998 as well as on the Olivier stage at the National Theatre. They appear at festivals and theatres around the UK and toured India in 2004.
Guest performers include Marcus Brigstocke, Pippa Evans, Julian Clary, Cariad Lloyd, Miles Jupp, Rachel Parris, Lauren Shearing, Monica Gaga, Eddie Izzard, Joshua C Jackson, Rosie Holt, Mike McShane, Sophie Duker and Niall Ashdown. Improvised music is provided by Steve Edis, Kirsty Newton, Richard Baker, Chris Ash and Yshani Perinpanayagam.
