Janet Street Porter is Off The Leash

7:30pm

Janet Street Porter is Off The Leash and coming to the Halifax Playhouse on 1st April – no it’s not an April Fool.

From a bolshy child with a Welsh-speaking budgie to National Treasure, Janet Street-Porter’s life (and language) has always been colourful.

As a broadcaster, television executive and newspaper editor she was at the forefront of some of Britain’s most enduring cultural moments. Now she finds herself with a
senior railcard and 4 ex-husbands. The nation’s favourite pissed-off pensioner brings comedy, tragedy and gossip in equal measure, a tour de force rant against growing old gracefully.

Often imitated but rarely equalled, in the words of her good friend Elton, “the bitch is back”!

Only a few tickets left so book now!
