Omid Djalili to draw record Whitchurch crowd
Comedian Omid Djalili is coming to Whitchurch next week and will draw the biggest crowd ever for a live event at the town’s Civic Centre.
The Iranian comic will head a stellar bill of stand-up on January 26 for the second instalment of 'Live At The Civic' brought to the town by Funny Beeseness.
Mock The Week and Live At The Apollo star Milton Jones headed up the first one in November for a show which in itself set a new record for the biggest crowd at the venue in High Street.
But the Djalili show has already gone past that with nearly 400 tickets now sold.
It will be hosted by Wayne Beese and support on the night will come from Stephen Bailey and Rosie Jones,
Wayne said: "We can’t wait to come back to Whitchurch. The first show with Milton was absolutely brilliant, the town really came out and supported it and we were stunned to set a new record for the highest ever attendance.
“They’ve come out and supported it again with Omid, to break the record again for the second show is incredible. We will need to extend the venue at this rate.
“In all seriousness, we’d really like to thank everyone who has bought tickets so far. They’re in for an absolutely cracking night, and we’ve still got a few tickets left for anyone else who wants to come and join us.”
Tickets start from £18.50 and are available at funnybeeseness.co.uk
Doors and bar open at 7pm, with the show starting at 8pm.
