Comedy duo is set to rock on in Norwich

Comedy duo Tommy Cannon and Bobby Ball – one of the UK's most successful and enduring double acts – will be talking about their Christian faith and how it changed their lives when they visit The Salvation Army Citadel in Norwich on Saturday April 5, at 7pm.

 

In a career spanning more than 40 years, they have achieved a string of honours which puts them amongst the all-time 'greats' of show business, topping the bill at almost every theatre in the country.

 

Their own television series (1979-1992) regularly attracted television audiences of 15-18 million. Tommy and Bobby have appeared at several Royal Variety command performances, and more recently in I'm a Celebrity, get Me Out of Here!

 

Bobby became a Christian after talking to theatre chaplain Max Wigley. He said: "I was walking on air. It was the biggest high I have ever had. Bigger than when we topped the bill at the Opera House, Blackpool for 10 weeks in front of 360,000 people, bigger than when we met the Queen. I knew God personally and everything pales into insignificance after that."

 

Tickets for the event will be sale from mid January at £6 and £4 (concessions) from The Salvation Army office, 34 St Giles Street, Norwich NR2 1LL (tel 01603 620747).
