Footlights Tour Show 2026: Prize Cow (For My Best Son)

Join the Cambridge Footlights for the home run of their 2026 Tour Show: Prize Cow (For My Best Son). Boasting far fewer actual cows but far more student comedians than the average county fair, this hour of zany sketches guarantees a night of hilarity in signature Footlights style. Watch these five prize cows of the Cambridge comedy scene in a vaudeville-esque mashup of surreal vignettes, celebrity impressions, and the odd song or two. Don't miss “The most renowned sketch troupe of them all” (The Independent) with the final performances of this year's summer tour show. The Footlights are a world-famous comedy society who have been nurturing some of the country’s most beloved actors and comics since their establishment in 1883.
