Freddie Starr coming to Wrexham this Wednesday

The comic legend that is Freddie Starr is back on tour with his unique brand of madness and mayhem and will be performing a show on Wednesday (15th November) in the NEWI William Aston Hall.

Freddie’s distinctive approach to comedy has captivated audiences around the world for almost four decades, and he is one of Britain’s best loved and most successful comedians.

Freddie’s act is a white knuckle ride of visual comedy and manic moments. One minute he can reduce audiences to tears of laughter with his stand-up material and the next enthral with his brilliant impressions. Freddie Starr is a comedian blessed with the oldest traditions of comedy and when combined with his passion for music and a desire to entertain, then the stage is set for a memorable evening.

Born in wartime Liverpool, Freddie was very involved in the 60s music scene and enjoyed stints entertaining in Hamburg alongside groups such as The Beatles, he even lived with them for a time.Freddie stole the show with his gags and impersonations and it was not long before he went solo with his own hilarious stage show.
 
In 1970 his big break came when he was invited to appear at the highly prestigious Royal Variety Performance and he was the first performer in 47 years to be allowed an encore!

Following that appearance, his career took a meteoric rise and since then Freddie has delighted audiences over the past 30 years in summer seasons, clubs and cabaret and on many television shows. He has been described as madcap, outrageous and crazy. Freddie Star is all of these things but he is also an accomplished actor, an outstanding ballad singer and a brilliant impressionist.

His current theatre tour ‘Simply Freddie’ has been described as unforgettable and not to be missed.
