Things to do in Bath, England: The Best Performances
Known for its restorative wonders, Bath was once the home of Jane Austen. Sure, you could attempt to conjure up this elegant city by reading Pride and Prejudice in your tub, but as Bath has a lot more history than your bathroom (we assume, anyway) you'd be missing out. A stroll through Bath is like visiting an open-air museum, with roughly 5,000 buildings in the city drawing notice for their architectural merit. After your stroll, soak in the natural hot waters of the Thermae Bath Spa, once a favorite of the Celts and Romans.

A really fantastic show, enjoyed by the whole family (kids and grandparents). The show takes place in a smallish room above a pub, the atmosphere was great - brilliant magic accompanied by humour and lots of audience participation

A unique evening entertainment that travels the streets of Bath. No history - but fun and street theatre unlike you've seen before
Reviewed By Nellie1407
Great entertainment and excellent value for money. Stand up on the move - What's it like ? Think Dave Allen meets Benny Hill !!!! (For those that can remember them). Wit, gags and tricks - delivery and timing both excellent, watch out for Stuart the rabbit.. The fact that the "tour" goes to different local locations really makes this "tour" work - each place visited provides a setting for each part of the show and don't worry there is no shortage of wit, jokes and humour as you walk the short distances from place to place - there is also no shortage of wit, humour, jokes and gags as you leave each setting and arrive at the next - basically it's non stop ! Completely recommend this tour, original, great fun and as above hilarious !

Never been to a comedy club before but during our romantic visit to Bath my husband & I thought we’d give it a go. It exceeded all our expectations. All 4 acts were hilariously funny from start to finish. Such good value for money for a rip roaring evening out. Venue is gorgeous & drink selection great. Thanks for a fab night out.
