Categories: Visitor News
With the year drawing ever closer to its end, it is no surprise that local entertainment venues, including the Babbacombe Theatre in Torquay are looking at and scheduling their programme for 2020.
In the past few days, tickets have gone on sale for some of the UK’s funniest comedians, as well as many other stunning shows. However, with these 4 comics, selling out in super quick time, based on previous experiences, a theatre spokesperson, the General Manager, Sharon Waring, has advised us, that to be assured of your tickets, you will need to book early.
JETHRO-The Count of Cornwall, returns on Friday 20th March. DAVID BADDIEL will be on stage in his new tour, Trolls Not the Dolls on Friday 17th April, GYLES BRANDRETH on Sunday 19th April promises an afternoon of wit, wisdom, high drama, low comedy, and hilarious name-dropping and last but by no means least, see TIM VINE, as you have never seen him before on Friday 15th May in his show Plastic Elvis.
If you cannot wait until next year, you can enjoy ED GAMBLE on the Babbacombe boards on Saturday 2nd November, the hilarious and popular comedians, Andy Oakley & Phil Lowen over the festive season, in the show, Wonderful Christmastime and from February, award winning comedian, Ben Nickless will ne gracing the stage with all forms of tomfoolery, weekly from 11th February – 21st October.
With Christmas approaching, its never easy to keep finding new ideas for gifts, so for that one person in your life, that has everything- why not treat them to a night of comedy, with one of the aforementioned comics.
Details for all of these shows and more, are on the venues website www.babbacombe-theatre.com albeit a call to the Box Office is just as useful and informative, 01803 328385
