The Bitter Fringes: William Thompson and Ciaran Franco WIP
Work in progress show from William Thompson and Ciaran Franco before they set out to the Edinburgh Fringe this summer!
Ciaran Franco & William Thompson
Get ready for a double-whammy of fresh comedy, because William Thompson and Ciarán Franco are hitting the stage to test-drive their brand-new material before unleashing it on the Edinburgh Fringe this summer!
They are bringing you an exclusive "work-in-progress" show to the Accidental. This is your chance to see the jokes in their rawest, funniest form—and maybe even witness a few beautiful, chaotic trainwrecks before they get polished for the big leagues.
