Spokeswoman Anna Hackney said: “Join five bright-eyed and bed-headed young comedians for an exhilarating sleepover (followed by mild nausea, physical slowness, and a creeping feeling of existential dread). ‘Pillow Talk’ is the insomniatic joy and absurd angst of the-evening-after-the-night-before.

“The Cambridge Footlights International Tour Show is the biggest Footlights show of the year. Join the most renowned sketch troupe of them all as they embark on another exceptional world tour, performing to over twenty thousand people across two continents. Last year's tour travelled to London, Edinburgh, California, Las Vegas, Boston, Chicago, New York, Cambridge, and many more. Don’t miss your chance to see the latest on offer from the group that launched many of the greatest names in comedy, including Stephen Fry, Emma Thompson, Mel Giedroyc, John Cleese, Miriam Margolyes, Hugh Laurie, Mitchell and Webb, Richard Ayoade, Olivia Colman, John Oliver and Sue Perkins.

Pillow Talk is another creative collaboration by Daniel Emery and Molly Stacey, who have together directed a number of critically acclaimed shows, including The Footlights Pantomime 2017: The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
