Tring School Comedy Fundraiser
Featuring
PAUL TONKINSON
Friday 2nd May
The Desborough Hall, Tring School
Starts 8pm (doors 7.15pm)
This annual event has raised thousands of well needed pounds for the school over the years. Acts who have appeared at this gig include stars such as Rufus Hound, Bob Mills, Ian Stone, Robin Ince, Tony Law, Frisky & Mannish and many many more.
This year we have a couple of cracking headliners. Paul Tonkinson and Raymond and Mr Timpkins.
Paul Tompkinson is a self-confessed professional northerner - and far worse, a celebrity Manchester United fan. He is a star of comedy in all its forms. Be it on stage, in character or as a TV host, this man does not fail to make you giggle
Tickets for this event are no longer available to buy.
Also featuring
RAYMOND AND MR TIMPKINS
Lightning fast choreography meets uber swift editing in a fantasmagorical collision of quality entertainment. An overload of velvet, sandals and multi-hued wool provides a startling accompaniment.
This pair have circumnavigated the planet, spurting amusement in concentrated bursts everywhere.
If you like music and let’s face it, who doesn’t, you’ll like it. If you like silliness, middle aged men dancing and unsavoury acts, you’ll probably love it.
PAUL DAVID COLLINS
...began performing stand up at the end of 2011, and in his first 6 months had won each of the new act nights at the Comedy Cafe, Dirty Dicks and The Cavendish, was invited to perform in a 'Best of the open mic' showcase for Up The Creek, and performed his first 'pro' spot at The Bearcat, Twickenham. In his first year he went on to become a semi-finalist in 'So You Think You're Funny?', a finalist in the Reading New Act of the Year award, and the outright winner of the 2012 'Golden Jester' national comedy competition. In 2013, after just 15 months of performing, he won the Jongleurs / Loaded LAFTAs 'Search for a star' new act of the year award.
