2011 Foster's Best Newcomer nominees Chris and Paul were hailed as one of the best new discoveries at last year's Edinburgh Festival. They return with a brand new show entitled The Chris and Paul Show Present Volume II. Chris and Paul add an exciting new dimension to sketch show comedy, mixing vaudevillian style with a sharp physical performance, reminiscent of the best silent comedy stars.

They promise to deliver more offbeat humour that strays into the awkward and bizarre and beyond.
