Stars Come Out for Francis House show is back for 10th time
The Stars Come Out for Francis House show returns next week, with Jimmy Cricket among the performers.
Jimmy and his friend Jim Nicholas, who hosts the event, are both long-standing supporters of Francis House Children’s Hospice in south Manchester.
In addition to Jimmy’s inimitable brand of comedy, there are also live tribute acts.
Peter Sarsfield performs as Frankie Valli and Justin Daish is Hank Marvin.
Also starring are the laughter and music duo, Kimika.
Stars Come Out for Francis House 10 takes place on Wednesday 16 October at Queen Elizabeth Hall in Oldham.
It is a family show with unreserved seating.
Tickets cost £25 (with a £2.10 booking fee).
Northern Irish entertainer Jimmy has raised more than half-a-million pounds for Francis House over the years.
That is thanks to countless touring shows and parish hall events across more than two decades.

Based in Didsbury, Francis House cares for children and young adults with life-threatening conditions.
It provides a home from home where families receive professional care, support and friendship.
Sister Aloysius and Fr Thomas Mulheran set up the Rainbow Family Trust in the early 1990s as a charity.
They were concerned about the lack of palliative care for the families of children with a short-life expectancy.
The late Diana, Princess of Wales, officially opened the seven-bedroom Francis House in November 1991.
