This year, the Cambridge Footlights are thrilled to announce that their annual international tour will see performances around the UK, Ireland and include a full residency at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Five of Cambridge University's funniest comedians will be taking the stage in an uproarious and bold new sketch show about the fragility of humankind. The 2025 show brings a touch of horror to "the most renowned sketch troupe of them all" (Independent), and guarantees a good few belly laughs along the way… Prepare for laughter, crisis, and a night of non-stop hilarity!
We can all feel a little FRAGILE, can't we?
The Cambridge Footlights are the world-famous student comedy society who first aired the talents of some of the foremost British comedians and actors. Coming back bigger and better than ever, get ready to watch the Footlights Tour take the world by storm!
