Richard Digance

The Frazer Theatre 'Lift Off' Appeal

Richard Digance is quite simply one of the most entertaining acts you will ever see. Brilliant self-penned comic songs introduced with panache, style and outrageous humour. Richard is an evergreen performer who appeals to all ages, making him still one of Britain's top comedy and music attractions. He is highly respected by fellow comedians for his original material and by musicians for being one of Britain's top acoustic guitarists. Richard achieved a BAFTA Nomination for TV Entertainer Of The Year in the late 1980s and in 2003 received the Gold Award from The British Academy of Composers and Songwriters for his services to live music. His book ‘Footynotes’, written with Sky's Chris Kamara, reached the top 10 in WH Smith's best-sellers list in November 2008. This year sees the release of two books of rhyme and the completion of his new novel ‘Greedy’. Kula Productions will be donating all the profits from this concert to The Frazer Theatre 'Lift Off' Fund, which aims to raise money for a new theatre roof. This is our way of saying thank-you to the Knaresborough Players for the support they have shown Kula over the past two years
