"the normals" is a london-based sketch comedy group/show. it was formed about five years ago by a bunch of university students studying acting at the time. the group was probably around for a longer period of time, with people coming in and out, but who people view as the "members" of this group was solidified about five years ago. they were a large group that essentially went around london preforming anywhere and everywhere -- sometimes even just for a free meal. about three years ago they forced (yes, forced) themselves into tv production and now have their own tv show of doing their own skits. it's pretty much just "the state" (for any of you 90s alt comedy fans out there).
so this is a pretty large group of comedians - probably around 12 - especially for a sketch comedy show. and they all write, direct, produce, edit, and act in their own skits. so, like, it's hella low budget but it's also part of their ~charm. and these twelve comedians, while best friends, are also a huge dysfunctional mess and that's mainly what i'm requesting here.
i imagine all of these people as various different types of a type-a personality. which means that they're pretty much at each others throats all the time. while they definitely love and support each other, they're also sort of in competition with each other, because they're all writing their own stuff and they each want their skits to be the one that makes the cut. and while not in a very self-serving way, but i can imagine that one person thinks their skit is funnier than another person and things escalate and next thing you know there's a chair being thrown across the wall. they're legitimately best friends -- ride hard, die hard bros. they'd die for each other.... but they might also kill each other.
honestly, these characters are hella open. the only requirements be that they were studying acting in london at least five years ago in order to keep with the timeline. and i'd prefer that they'd stay around the 22-28 age range. they're free to have other projects going on, but this would be the thing they're most "known" for.
