We're Going Back to the Fringe! Book your tickets here :)

Back for a second year, The Birmingham Footnotes Comedy Society present their mix of high energy, almost absurd and delightfully daft sketches. ‘Charming, funny and self-aware in the best possible way’ **** (EdFringeReview.com). ‘They may seem like a bunch of nutters, but the Footnotes are wonderfully adept at making people laugh as much and as hard as possible’ (Redbrick Newspaper).
