THIS SATURDAY AT UNITY: THE BEST OF LEGIONS OF DOOM 🔥

An evening of hilariously unhinged and utterly unexpected sketch comedy from Liverpool’s best (and only) alternative comedy posse.

This message is approved by LOD's biggest supporter, Eli Randle ✅️

[Unity Theatre 🧡 @unitytheatre]

Moving and funny, peppered with Elaine’s Liverpudlian wit, 'Static' explores a volatile childhood, the shadier side of the ‘business called show’ and its disappointments, classism, ableism, and always being the outsider. 💥
