| Abstract | "In the first detailed history of the Cambridge Footlights in over 40 years, Robert Sellers chronicles the evolution of Britain's oldest student sketch comedy troupe, from its creation in the 1880s to the present. Its alumni have set the tone of cultural eras from the 1960s to today, via shows such as Beyond the Fringe, Monty Python, The Goodies, Not the Nine O'Clock News and, more recently, Peep Show, QI and The Great British Bake-Off. This amusing and diverting book includes first-hand interviews with former Footlights alumni and extracts from past Footlights productions"-- Provided by publisher. |
