THE SHOW THAT ELEVATES SMACK TALK TO AN ART FORM!
Roast Battle UK pits two comedians against each other in a fierce showdown of quick wit and clever insults. Each comedian delivers five jokes to roast their rival, and the other has the chance to respond with a spontaneous comeback. A daring panel of guest judges ultimately declares the winner!
“Roast Battle undoubtedly meets expectations, showcasing an unrestrained contest of comedic prowess, bold jabs, and rapid-fire retorts.” ★★★★★ Broadway Baby
