Top names in comedy to appear at this year’s Cambridge Fringe Festival




The Cambridge Fringe Festival, organised by Big Deal Comedy and Commoners’ Comedy, takes place later this week across seven venues in the city, and there is plenty of variety in the line-up, meaning there should be something for everyone.

Comics performing include Jordan Brookes, Bobby Mair, Lou Sanders, Jason Stampe, Eleanor Tiernan, Geoff Norcott, Michael Akadiri and Angela Barnes.

Leanne Clarke, of Big Deal Comedy, previously told the Cambridge Independent how they ended up collaborating with Commoners’ Comedy on the festival, saying: “We know Ali Warwood who runs Commoners’ and we’d been having conversations over the years whenever they were doing the Fringe that it would be quite a cool idea to join forces, because us and Commoners’ we don’t act like rivals.

“If we’ve got dates on the same night, for example, we’ll try and double up the acts so that we both get a decent act on the bill.

“We’re quite friendly with her and we had this conversation of joining forces and they liked the idea and the dates aligned this year and it worked well, so we’re really excited to join up with them.”
