The Don Banks Afternoon Variety Show

Join a journey full of uplifting songs, stories and laughter as you celebrate the 21st year of what has now become a permanent fixture on the Darwen entertainment calendar.

Originally hosted by local comedian Don Banks and more recently by popular singer Glen South, the monthly shows are now presented by the elusive, mysterious 'voice from behind the curtain'.  Many have tried to expose his identity without success.

Line-up:
Blowjangles, Ska-tinged Zoot Suiters.
Dawn, fab female vocalist.
Kyle Harrison, local professional male vocalist.

Free tea/coffee will be served at the interval, courtesy of support from Darwen Town Council.

Pre-booking your tickets online is ideal.  You don't need a printer.  Just pre-book and collect your tickets when you arrive on the day. Please call the Box Office to claim a 'Darwen Resident' discount.
