Treats in Norfolk for the audience… & performers!

Jimmy Cricket headlined a splendid show in rural Norfolk in late June.

It was the well-known entertainer’s third visit to the North Walsham Community Centre and on all three occasions the organiser behind each show has been local man Colin Jeary.

Colin is a great advocate and supporter of the centre, and often arranges special events at this much-loved rural venue.

Jimmy, 70, lined up alongside female vocalist Eve Bridger and instrumentalist Rachel King (all three are pictured bottom).

Rachel plays the saxophone as part of her armoury and this enticed Jimmy to get his saxophone out to allow the two of them to play a duet at the end of the show (top).

The song they chose was a rendition of the classic Morecambe and Wise theme tune Bring me Sunshine.

And so it was a splendid summer evening filled with treats not just for the members of the audience, but also for those performing on stage!
