Created by Max Dickens and Conor Jatter, the ground-breaking fusion of improv comedy and live jazz comes to the BIT after sell-out Edinburgh Fringe and London shows.

Featuring a rotating ensemble of talent from your favourite Fringe improv shows like Showstoppers and Austentatious, plus the cream of the festival music scene, Giant Steps is your quintessential Edinburgh experience. ‘An absolute must see’ ***** (TheatreWeekly.com).
Giant Steps will be supported by Bristol based H.E.L.E.N. as their opening act.
