Fans give Jimmy egg as a present!
Jimmy Cricket got more than he bargained for when he appeared at one of his favourite venues over Easter.
The well-known entertainer did a show at the West Cliff Theatre – where he is also a patron – in Clacton-in-Sea on Easter Sunday.
He has appeared at the theatre many times over the years and on this occasion brought his ‘Audience with’ show, which gives his fans a chance to ask him questions during the interactive part of the performance.
The host of this question-and-answer session was none other than Norman Jacobs – chair of the trust which runs the theatre and a joint winner of Jimmy’s Golden Wellington award for April.
Jimmy said: “I was really thrilled with the questions that were flung at me and thanks to Norman for expertly handling this part of the show on my behalf!”
And a seasonal bonus for Jimmy was when two fans presented him with an Easter egg!
