An Evening With Jimmy Tarbuck
After more than 60 years at the very top of his profession Jimmy Tarbuck OBE, one of the most popular household names from the golden era of British stand up, relives many of the most iconic moments of a life on stage and screen.
An Evening with Jimmy Tarbuck will see the acclaimed comedian and raconteur reflecting on a remarkable life in showbusiness, the seeds of which were sown in childhood where he was classmates – and good mates – with John Lennon.
Jimmy will present a hugely entertaining mix of anecdotes and jokes from a rich and varied life, including recollections of his many years presenting Sunday Night at the London Palladium which shot him to fame in 1963. There will also be stories from Jimmy’s childhood, growing up in Liverpool and of course his golfing life, which has proved to be a rich source of entertainment and celebrity both on and off the course.
Jimmy’s incredible career has taken him around the world, mixing with and befriending the biggest stars in entertainment: he’s played golf with Bing Crosby, sung with Tom Jones, partied with Parky and sipped champagne (never lager!) with Cilla. Fans will be treated to all these anecdotes and more by one of our true national treasures.
The evening will culminate with an audience Q&A.
