A veteran comedian is set to take audiences on a journey through his glittering showbiz career.

Jimmy Tarbuck will perform at the Devonshire Park Theatre in Eastbourne on Sunday, May 17, as part of his current tour.

The show, titled An Evening with Jimmy Tarbuck, will see the Liverpudlian entertainer reflect on his life in comedy, share personal stories and deliver a trademark mix of humour and anecdotes.

He will also reflect on his lifelong love of golf and the many celebrities he has met and entertained, both on and off the course.

Tickets for An Evening with Jimmy Tarbuck are available via eastbournetheatres.co.uk or by calling 01323 412000.

The comedian, who first rose to fame in 1963 as the host of Sunday Night at the London Palladium, will also recount tales from his childhood in Liverpool, where he was classmates with John Lennon.

Mr Tarbuck said: "It’s been great, and I love getting on stage, where I belong.

"Now I am really looking forward to visiting the towns and cities where I learned my craft and built my fanbase.

"The crowds are always on great form and always ready to laugh.

"And laughter is the only drug I’ve ever needed."
