Welcome to Jenny Eclair’s new stand-up show. After thirty years in the business she should vaguely know what she’s doing? Professional Grumpy Old Woman, writer and panto star; Eclair has been round the block that many times she’s lost count.
Touring as a stand-up gives Eclair enormous pleasure. It also gives her dreadful varicose veins, but most importantly it gives her partner (St Geof) a bit of a break.
Help him keep her out of the house, by supporting this show!
Tickets: £17.50 Book here: http://www.exeterphoenix.org.uk/events/jenny-eclair-eclairious/

A light-hearted survey of some of the more unusual characters to hold ecclesiastical office in the Diocese of Exeter. Using papers from the Cathedral Archive and the County Record Office, Paul Evans, who is giving the lecture, explores the lives some of Devon's clergy who have not merely erred and strayed from the social, cultural and liturgical norms of the Church of England, but also those who naughtily followed the devices and desires of their own hearts. From Bishops to unbeneficed preachers (sometimes not without reason), this lecture aims to explore a broad and colourful...
