Boothby GraffoeIf the trek up to Edinburgh would have been just a bit too far for you, but a trek to London would be less painful, then you will be pleased to hear that for the first time in it's five year history "The Best Of The Fest" is venturing out from the sanctuary of Edinburgh's "Assembly Rooms" for a five day run at the Bloomsbury Theatre.

"Best of the Fest London", sponsored by Nokia and Orange, takes place from 23rd to 27th September 2003 and features some of the best talent from this year's Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

The show will be hosted Boothby Graffoe, and will feature Dara O'Brian, Lucy Porter, Terry Alderton, Phil Nicol, poet Murray Lachlan Young and this year's brightest Fringe newcomer Inder Manocha.

Tickets are available from the Bloomsbury Theatre box office on 0207 388 8822 and cost £12 or £10 concessions. 

We have two pairs of tickets to give away for Wednesday's show on September 24th. A pair each will go to the first two people who can email us (including their contact details) and correctly tell us where stand-up comedian Boothby Graffoe got his name.  Deadline for entries is Noon on Tuesday.
