NEWS: Leach cancels Cookie Show, Loretta appearing tonight only

A couple of bits of comedy news concerning this weekend's shows:

If you were hoping to go and see comedy lothario Jeff Leach tonight at the Cookie Jar, you can't. Jeff has had to cancel the show at short notice due to being "shaky, weak and expelling everything from my guts violently at both ends". A pleasant image for his fans, I'm sure you'll agree.

So I suggest getting yourself over to Just the Tonic instead. Troubled singer/songwriter and alcoholic, unappreciated genius Loretta Maine is headlining tonight, and the previously billed Saturday show is no longer on, so you'd best get along tonight!! Support comes from Andrew Bird, Eric Lampaert and Mike Wilkinson.

Also, the DMU Footlights open mic night, previously billed for this Wednesday (7th Nov) is now taking place on Monday 5th Nov at The Cookie Jar.

So now you know.
