'David’s Got Talent!

One Man Show


British Heart Foundation


Aughton Village Hall


Saturday 5 September 2020


7.00. - 10.30 pm


Tickets Adults £10, Children, senior Citizens £5


Ladies and Gentlemen,


Four crossed out... three crossed out... around two hours of entertainment, well that’s what I’m calling it anyway, for your delight and delectation at the Aughton Village Hall.


I will be doing my:


Impressions


Comedy act


Magic Act


Singing Act


Dancing Act


Not necessarily in that order and not for that long either, maybe an hour and a half?... What do you think I am, Superman or something? I also apologise in advance for unconsciously ripping off any previous catchphrases, jokes or material that comedians have done in the past and who have influenced my comedy style. It is quite intentional, I mean, unintentional, not the style... no...oh I give up.


Plus I still need a lot of practice on my magic act, which is rather sketchy at the moment. I do have some tricks up my sleeve, though.


Singing and dancing act, well that’s quite different, both of them together at the same time?... Well, I’m not quite sure about this one just at the moment. This is subject to a clear bill of health from the doctor and it also involves me dual- or double-tasking, whatever you call it... is it multi-tasking? I will have to ask any ladies who come on the night.


And...I will be wearing a series of disguises (or maybe just silly hats depending on the budget) throughout the evening.


The bar will be open and refreshments at the interval, if I manage to rope some people in, I mean, I am nearly 100% positive that there will be some biscuits and cake left.


Anyway, all proceeds above what I’m paying to hire the hall and all my expenses and that... no I won’t be chauffeur-driven to the Aughton Village Hall... I will be either on my bike or in the Chicago car, well that’s what I call the All that Jazz or Honda, don’t ask me what the registration is... I am saving that for my Memory Act, which I am not doing this time because of possible litigation from some Count somebody or other.


All the money, except any that potentially might rest in my current account for a bit until I work out how much I have lost on the night, will be going to NAMED CHARITY I HAVE NOT DECIDED YET, BRITISH HEART FOUNDATION?, so come on down, the price is right, and it will be nice to see you, to see you, nice. I want to tell you a story... what do you mean, he’s before my time, just like that! My coffee has gone cold while I am writing this, so I will have to put it in the microwave.
