Jim Dale is taking his show on the road – to London!
Back in the spring, we reported on Jim Dale’s one-man show, Just Jim Dale, which he performed in both Delaware and New York. Now, we are excited to tell you that Dale – who lent his voice to the American editions of the Harry Potter audiobooks – is going to be bringing the show to London!
Jim Dale is one of the world’s great stage entertainers: singer, dancer, comedian, Shakespearean actor, raconteur. In Just Jim Dale, Jim takes audiences on a journey through an unequalled career in the theatre with a myriad of irresistible showbiz tales, songs and performances – a career extending from performing as the youngest professional comedian on the British Music Hall stage to joining the National Theatre at the request of Sir Laurence Olivier, starring in 11 Carry On films, his Broadway triumphs in Scapino, Barnum and Me and My Girl and then his uproarious experiences narrating all seven Harry Potter audiobooks for the US market.
Still curious about Just Jim Dale? Former MuggleNet staff member and Alohomora! host Noah Fried reviewed the show for us during its run in New York in the spring of 2014.
Just Jim Dale will have its limited run in London at the Vaudeville Theatre from May 26 to June 20. Tickets for the show can be booked here.
