A multi-purpose arts venue in Staffordshire was the setting for Jimmy Cricket’s latest show.
The Northern Irish comedian performed at Foxlowe Arts Centre in Leek over the late summer Bank Holiday weekend.
And afterwards he posted on social media: “Hi folks, what a fabulous comedy venue at #foxloweartscentre last night.
“Our thanks to comic #tonyvino for the booking alongside fellow comedian #billwoolland with Cindy the manager and staff, Ollie and Poppy and sound/lighting technician Richard. 
#laughteristhebestmedicine.”
Foxlowe Arts Centre was the brainchild of a group of local people.
They had the vision of a thriving centre for a rich variety of arts-related projects in the heart of the historic market town of Leek.
Initially a group of volunteers cleared, cleaned and decorated part of the Georgian building.
It was ready for the first Christmas Exhibition in December 2011.
And it was shortly followed by the opening of the community café and a programme of arts events.
It has grown from strength to strength and now includes a cinema, comedy club, music, theatre productions and exhibition gallery.
The cenre is also a wedding and private function venue, and hosts fashion shows and school workshops.
