Graham Norton to host charity evening at Lyric Theatre

Graham Norton is set to host a one-off reading and sing through of Midlife Cowboy, a musical by comedian Tony Hawks.

The charity evening, which will raise funds for the Tony Hawks Centre for children with cerebral palsy, will take place at the Lyric Theatre, Shaftesbury Avenue on 25 April.

The event will feature special guests including Jack Dee, Ben Miller, Caroline Quentin and Doon Mackichan, who will all help to debut the show about the loves, lives and passions of Swindon’s premier Cowboy Club.

Originally titled The Heartbreak Kid, Hawks and Miller won a Perrier Pick of the Fringe when they performed Midlife Cowboy at the Edinburgh Festival in 1994. Hawks has since updated the show, ready for its 2016 return.

Further guests are yet to be announced.

Ticket prices start from £16 with all proceeds going to the Tony Hawks Centre.
