This month under the Spotlight are the shows The Grumpkins and Up The Antics.

*The Grumpkins*

Bristol-based improvisers Emma T and Pete Leaman make up the semi-mythical and all-magical duo The Grumpkins. They will weave a brand new hilarious show from nothing but their imaginations and sheer determination.

This (very) potentially ground-breaking masterpiece of a show may feature anything from adventure, romance, aliens, angels, demons, knights, drama, mystery, intrigue and a well-crafted gritty limited streaming series about a mismatched pair of detectives. It could also feature two construction workers talking about their favorite types of pie.

What will they do? We don't know.
Where did they come from? Cotton-eye joe.

*Up The Antics*

Bristol-based Up The Antics (BBC Radio 4 Extra) take us down the rabbit hole of improvised sketch comedy. With the suggestion of a location, the antics will explore the characters and journeys taken to arrive there, with hilarious results.
