We are
proud to present two of the area’s best-known performers as part of their
fundraising tour of local churches.
Writer,
broadcaster and entertainer Keith Skipper is again teaming up with Methodist
preacher Ian Prettyman for a Mardling and Music Evening in aid of our Church
Bells Restoration Appeal at St Peter and St Paul Church Barnham Broom NR9 4DB
on Saturday, May 21st.
Keith,
based in Cromer, and Ian, from Lowestoft, have appeared together on many
occasions as part of productions of All Preacher Great and Small in churches
and as members of the much-loved Press Gang entertainment troupe in theatres
and village halls over a period of 25 years.
“We make
regular use of our inter-county rivalry on these outings but always find
complete harmony when it comes to the target in mind – encouraging local
communities to support a vital drive for extra finances “ says Keith. “We are
delighted to include Barnham Broom on the last lap of our great adventure in so
many wonderful local buildings.”
While
Keith shares favourite church and chapel yarns and verses as well as a Bible
reading in his beloved Norfolk dialect, his colleague provides musical items,
including traditional East Anglian farming and fishing songs and a rousing
medley on his melodeon.
Doors open
7pm for a 7.30pm start and the show runs without a break until about 9pm. Then
it’s time for mardling, a raffle in aid of the Bells Appeal and refreshments.
Tickets
are £10 per person and go on sale at our Quiz evening on Saturday, April 16th.
Following this they can be purchased from Barnham Broom Post Office &
Stores.
Refreshments
are included in the ticket price and Parking is available.
"Middle age is
when, if you have a choice between two temptations, you select the one that
will get you home earlier." Keith
