BILL BAILEY

Vaudevillean

Before streaming, before tv, before cinema, before even radio… There was Vaudeville!
This was the prime-time entertainment of its day.
A celebration of comedy, songs, and multifarious skills.

Tales of showbiz, tales of the city.
Tales of the strange, the unusual… All with the aim to amuse and amaze a broad audience.
Enthralling family fun, to divert and transport from the tribulations of daily life!

Bill Bailey returns with a show that celebrates this great tradition, as the versatile multi-instrumental, multi-lingual, purveyor of humour and musical prowess, who could lay claim to being perhaps the foremost practitioner of this great tradition…

An entertainer, a performer, a modern Vaudevillean!

 Bailey may be one of our biggest-name comics, a national treasure no less.”
