Supporting local comedy

Stand-up comedy returns to the Baxter Theatre in June/July 2007 in the form the Vodacom Funny Festival (19 June - 8 July) and spreads its wings into the campuses and townships of Cape Town. The Funny Festival, featuring local and international funnymen, is an initiative by Eddy Cassar, founder of the Smirnoff International Comedy Festival in 1997.
