Criminally Untrue is a completely improvised true crime documentary, based entirely on your suggestions. Help these improvisers create the next Tiger King, Fyre Festival or Wild Wild Country… complete with inexpert interviews, unstructured reconstructions and fabricated evidence. From alumni of Edinburgh Fringe’s longest-running improv troupe, The Improverts, and the sell-out cult-hit The Wonder Jam.
