TweetHiya Kids,
Barbara Nice is Havin A Piggin Lock-in Again!
Join us once more for another great Saturday night in together!
For about 26 years I have been travelling up and down the country on National Express coaches, buses and trains. It’s been a good laugh and I’ve worked with a load of belting acts and met smashing people in the audience.
Now all that live entertainment has stopped overnight, not just for comedy but for theatre, music gigs and more, with no sign of the situation changing in the near future.
Every day feeling the same, no shape to the week, people of all ages missing and worrying about their families and pals.
So I thought it would be good to put on a show for all the family on Saturday 30th May at 8:00pm for 90 minutes with tip-top guests from the live circuit to raise money for Arts Emergency and also to pay the performers and everyone else helping to make it happen.
The first Lockin was on Saturday 16 th May and we were made up to see that all the work planning it and trying to recreate the atmosphere and benefit of a live Barbara show paid off!
Loads came and loved it “ best laugh I’ve had all Lockdown “
Come on kids - let’s get together and have a laugh, it’s pigging good for us!
Get some cheese and onion cobs and crisps in and your favourite tipple and let's make a Saturday night of it.
Lets plough our own furlough!
Were livin la Vida lockdown!
Love Barbara. x

Anther brilliant night in the company of Barbara Nice and Friends, yes it's daft, but it's so much fun. Ploughing your own furlough has never been so entraining, it really does feel like a night out. Just what we need at a time like this.

Oh wow what an amazing evening. Another fantastic night of comedy, connecting with others, singing, dancing, fun, laughter and a release of tension from the working week. Thank you Barbara, see you next week. 😂🌟😍
