Barbara Nice, the tip-top Queen of Comedy, brings her smash hit show Fun! to Chorley on Friday 20th February 2026.
Performed by the BEM-awarded Janice Connolly, whose credits include Phoenix Nights, Coronation Street and Britain’s Got Talent, this joyous, life-affirming evening promises laughter, connection and a much-needed dose of fun.
Barbara says: “In these dark days, we need to find fun whenever we piggin’ can.” Expect her unique comic insights into daily life, delivered with warmth, wit and whirlwind energy.
Suitable for ages 14 to four score and ten, the show takes place in the Studio with unreserved seating. Tickets are £15.
Barbara’s Fun! theory suggests laughter is the thunderclap of two ideas meeting head on. Audiences are guaranteed to leave feeling lighter, brighter and full of positive hormones.
