Jimmy and The Krankies to appear in Francis House fundraiser
Story from The Oldham Advertiser about the charity show
Jimmy Cricket will be teaming up with other stars from the world of showbusiness in October to raise money for charity.
The legendary Irish comedian will be performing in the “Stars Come Out” show at the Oldham Coliseum as a fundraiser for the Francis House Hospice.
Also appearing will be The Krankies – very good friends of Jimmy’s – and 1960s Merseybeat band Swinging Blue Jeans.
The show will now be on October 10 and 11 after the originally-planned one-day performance was sold out.
Jimmy says: “It will be a very special show as it is not often that you find The Krankies, myself and the Swinging Blue Jeans in town and all on the same bill.
“The Francis House Children’s Hospice is a wonderful place where a lot of support and care is provided.”
Tickets are £15, with concessions £12, and are available from the box office on 0161 624 2829 or by going to the Coliseum’s website
