About Twice Nightly - The Glory Days of Variety - Askrigg Temperance Village Hall
TWICE NIGHTLY: Freddie Francis has been a second spot comic for thirty years, touring the country on every variety bill going.
We find him in 1956, recalling his life spent touring the halls; the ups, the downs, the riotous, the fantastic and the downright silly!
He recalls his days entertaining the troops during the war, playing at the infamous Glasgow Empire, and we discover
what really happened when a speciality act lost her snake on stage!!
Ultimately Twice Nightly is a fading memory of the variety stage. The death of something that has been part of everyones life for decades is now on the decline. Where will Freddie go when he finishes this tour? Who will he go back to, and ultimately who really cares?
Twice Nightly also includes routines from amongst others: Max Miller, Rob Wilton, Jimmy James and Norman Evans and renditions of many of the popular songs of the time, such as The Man who broke the bank at Monte Carlo, Happy days are here again and Goodnight Sweetheart.
