COMEDY AT THE FESTIVAL
Brighton has its own comedy festival in the Autumn, so this is traditionally a smaller strand at the May Festival, hosted within the Fringe. That said, it gets bigger ever year, and if you combine the Fringe's comedy and cabaret sections, which we do here, we're talking quite a lot of shows.
