Information
Over the years, the show has won the Fringe First Award and a Perrier nomination in Edinburgh, won rave reviews from the national press, recorded many TV & radio specials and helped begin the careers of Rory Bremner, Josie Lawrence & Bill Bailey.
The constant updating of material has allowed Newsrevue to build up a cult following in London and beyond. Newsrevue holds the Guiness World Record for the longest theatrical run of a comedy show.
The Treason Show is a slick and irreverent satirical sketch show based on the news and current affairs. Founded by Newsrevue and Edinburgh veteran Mark Brailsford, The Treason Show plays to packed houses up to five nights a month, skewering targets from the Royal Family, to President Blair, to the lack of decent toilets on British trains.
The Guardian nominated The Treason Show for it's alternative Perrier shortlist at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2001.
