Hiya  Kids,
 
Barbara Nice is Havin A Piggin Lock-in Again!

Join us once more for another great Saturday night in together! With More Guests! More Singalongs! and of course a chance to win something off Barbara’s famous raffle table!

For about 26 years I have been travelling up and down the country on National Express coaches, buses and trains. It’s been a good laugh and I’ve worked with a load of belting acts and met smashing people in the audience.
Now all that live entertainment has stopped overnight, not just for comedy but for theatre, music gigs and more, with no  sign of the situation changing in the near future.
 
Every day feeling the same, no shape to the week, people of all ages missing and worrying about their families and pals.
 
So I thought it would be good to put on a show for all the family on Saturday 11th July at 8:00pm for 90 minutes with tip-top guests from the live circuit to raise money for the mental health charity,  and also to pay the performers and everyone else helping to make it happen.

The first Lockin was on  Saturday 16 th May  and we were made up to see that all the work planning it and trying to recreate the atmosphere and benefit of a live Barbara show paid off!
Loads came  and loved it “ best laugh I’ve had all Lockdown “

 Come on kids - let’s get together and have a laugh, it’s pigging good for us!

Get some cheese and onion cobs and crisps in and your favourite tipple and let's make a Saturday night of it.

Lets plough our own furlough!
 
Were livin la Vida lockdown!
 
Love Barbara. x

As a big fan of Janice Connolly (aka Barbara Nice) , I had no idea how this was going to work. But it was fab! Felt like been at a gig but actually more intimate. Janice is like Ken Dodd. The jokes don't matter so much. It's the interaction with her audience during the gig that keeps you smiling hours later. Last night was no different. The new take on the famous raffle was ingenious! Hopefully we'll all be back supporting live comedy sooner rather than later.
