Funny Side... in Solihull

Another funny night in England... this time in Solihull Arts Complex & with Chris Hatt on the piano...
Middle England needed laughs & we provided them...

Very appreciative audience in a splendid venue... with excellent and tremendously helpful backstage staff - thank you everyone...

They were especially amused by Jake Thackray's nun Sister Josephine... well, let's face it:- habemus Papam just half-an-hour before curtain up...

Funny Side... in Clacton

More mirth in the Princes Theatre, Clacton-on-Sea...
As ever, the Clacton Theatre was full to brimming & everyone to do with the organization was friendly and helpful... even making sure we got the last train home.
Joined last night by Paul Plummer on the piano (who had kindly allowed his one day off in the UK to be spent at the seaside with us!) we had a very fine evening.
They loved it all, from Jake Thackray to Monty Python & Noel Coward to Tim Minchin, via Instant Sunshine and Richard Stilgoe... On the Funny Side of the Street carries on creating jollity.

Excellent to visit such a thriving music society, with full membership and many sponsors...
Long may they continue...

Funny Side... in Wimborne

A splendid evening in Wimborne, Dorset (a stone's throw from the Minster in which I was married!) at the Tivoli Theatre...
Another outing for On the Funny Side of the Street, and much laughter echoed around the place!
An assassin, a spotty adolescent, a convict nun and a cross-dressing lumberjack were all in attendance... and that was just on stage!

More funny travelling to come....!
