An Evening with Jimmy Tarbuck
The Haymarket
Sunday 13 October 2024
7.30pm
Jimmy Tarbuck OBE, one of the most popular household names from the golden era of British stand up, is at The Haymarket on Sunday 13 October.
Featuring 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 both on and off the course. The evening will also include an audience Q&A.
Jimmy says “We’re all getting on a bit but that makes it even more important to get out and do the things we love doing - if we possibly can. I’ve missed being on stage – I’ve not done any live shows since Covid – so I’m raring to get back out there and share some time with the many fantastic audiences across the UK. Let’s see how it all goes, and who knows, maybe this could become a more regular thing in the next year and beyond.”
Jimmy’s incredible career has taken him around the world, mixing and befriending the biggest stars in entertainment: he’s played golf with Bing Crosby, sang with Tom Jones, partied with Parky, drank with Frank (Sinatra) and sipped champagne (never larger!) with Cilla. Fans will be treated to all these anecdotes and more by one of our true national treasures.
