Get ready for a wild night of outrageous improvisation as we play the infamous game F*ck Marry Kill live on stage. Long-form comedy improvisation with a killer twist.
Actors are assigned secret objectives, and they must race against the clock to complete them all. Set at a remote location suggested by the audience, four friends reunite, with secret desires brewing under the surface. By the end of the day, there will be love, sex, betrayals, a wedding and murder!

F*ck Marry Kill: The Improv Show

FMK Productions—The King’s Head Pub

I did not know Fuck Marry Kill was a game, not until the start of the performance. I guess I’m in the minority; when the cast asked who in the audience doesn’t know the game, mine was one of the few hands that went up.

I’m a veteran cruiser. I have almost enough cruise kilometres to get to the moon. Thus, you can believe it when I tell you what I know cruise ship games are like. I had the eerie feeling that this was going to be a hokey cruise game when it started. Don’t getme wrong: cruise games are fun, but on the ships, you also get unlimited, free alcoholic beverages to amp up your spirits.

Thankfully, once the “cards were dealt,” the performance turned back to being a show,rather than a game show. There are plenty of improv-type gags that go with the development, and some good ha-has throughout. I didn’t really get the “game” part of it,even with the “reveal” at the end. It would have been equally fun just to see the improv without the game and just made into a murder mystery.
