Jimmy Cricket: 50 Golden Years

Sat 16 September 2023 Jimmy Cricket: 50 Golden Years

Comedian Jimmy Cricket with his trademark R & L Wellington Boots will be coming to the Festival Drayton Centre on Saturday 16th Sept 2023 for a 7.30pm show to celebrate his ’50 Years in Showbusiness!’

Jimmy Cricket is one of the UK’s most loved Irish Comedians, having made 4 Series for Central Television in the mid 1980’s, and his own BBC Radio 2 Series in the 1990’s, alongside numerous television appearances and Royal Variety Shows over the decades!

Jimmy is looking forward to returning to the Festival Drayton Centre as he celebrates this milestone, and as he says himself, “It’s great to be making a return visit, as it has warm memories for me doing my one-nighters there”. Jimmy will also be accompanied by singer ‘May Marian’.

Jimmy’s family friendly act will take us on a journey from his stand-up comedy, while sharing one or two of his written comedy songs, alongside other surprise routines throughout the show! So why not come and celebrate Jimmy’s landmark, “50 Years in Showbusiness!”
