Club meeting – An Evening of (very) Old Radio : Paul Kerensa

Paul Kerensa’s fascinating show about the very early history of radio broadcasting in the UK.
This one-man show informs, educates but above all entertains about radio’s first moments – alongside insights from inside TV/radio today.
Enjoy tales, clips and re-enactments of the earliest landmark broadcasts: the first radio drama, music, comedy, sports, children’s programme + much more – researched, written and performed by British Comedy Award-winning writer (Miranda, Not Going Out), comedian + broadcast historian Paul Kerensa.
This ‘stand-up history’ show brings to life forgotten pioneers – from Britain’s first DJ Gertrude Donisthorpe (spinning discs in a field during WWI) to the BBC’s first children’s character (Susan the blue cat with yellow spots). Plus stories of Paul’s BBC career of sitcom-writing, radio-presenting and cheating on Bargain Hunt.
