National Treasure Ken Dodd Set To Bring A Little Bit Of Happiness To Warrington

A comedy legend and National Treasure will be heading to Warrington in the New Year with a hilarious show that will have you rolling in the aisles.

Warrington's Parr Hall will play host to the King of Comedy Ken Dodd, who will entertain crowds with his timeless sense of humour and classic one-liners.

Famous for his natural wit, wild hair and buck teeth, the 90-year-old comedy veteran has been delighting fans for more than 60 years, and recently received the ultimate reward for his services by being made a Member of the British Empire (MBE) in 2017.

Returning to the limelight at Parr Hall on Saturday 27 January, the Master of Mirth will be presenting his famous Happiness Show, a concert that will leave you absolutely discumknockerated (that's Knotty Ash for 'over the moon') by a truly tattyfilarious (fun-filled) evening of laughter.

Celebrated for his love of music and catchy hits, the Liverpudlian entertainer promises to regale audiences with a wide range of songs, from opera to ballads, that will have you singing all the way home.

Named after his famous musical hit, Happiness, this new show is guaranteed to brighten up a dark January night and put a joyful spring in your step.

Parr Hall is a listed building and has been a long standing feature of Warrington's cultural scene since its opening in 1895. It is a medium sized concert venue with 1000 seats.

Pyramid opened in 2002, with support from Arts Council England and the National Lottery, as an arts centre focusing on smaller performances and community events. It offers a range of spaces to hire for events, weddings and conferences.

The venues are run by Culture Warrington, which is a charitable trust that was established in May 2012 to also manage Warrington Museum & Art Gallery and cultural events across the town including Warrington Festival and Warrington Contemporary Arts Festival.
