About

April 1st:

Oh, what’s that? You’d like an award winning live comedy show that celebrates positivity, silliness and creativity to do an April Fools day special, filled with mischief, shenanigans and indeed, larks?

And you’d like it all to be hosted by the one and only award winning comedian Carl Carzana?

Well no worries, pal! Boast in Show: Living in a Prankster’s Paradise has just that incredibly specific show!

We’ll be returning to Komedia on the 1st April 2026 with 6 comedians ready to battle it out with praise and prove themselves the nicest kid in comedy. From hilarious and heartfelt poems to original songs, extravagant gifts to good old-fashioned jokes, these contestants will go to extreme lengths to outshine each other with kindness, impress our panel of expert judges and be crowned Boast in Show!

The only rule? Anything goes - except hurting each other’s feelings!

About the show:

Boast in Show, the hilariously uplifting comedy showdown where comedians battle with compliments instead of insults. Created by comedianCarl Carzana, and produced by comedian and producerDawn Williams, this one-of-a-kind show has taken the comedy scene by storm, earning theChortle Award for Best Live Comedy Format in the South East 2025.

Unlike traditional roast battles,Boast in Show flips the script. Challengers face off using elaborate compliments, grand gestures, and creative “boasts” to celebrate their opponent. From heartfelt poems and original songs to extravagant gifts - even a national day officially registered in a contestant’s name(!); Contestants go to extreme lengths to outshine each other with kindness and win the hearts (and high scores) of the panel of expert judges. The only rule?Anything goes - apart from hurting each other’s feelings!
