An Evening with Sunny Ormonde

Sunny has been playing the "outrageous and raunchy" Lilian Bellamy in Radio 4's The Archers for the past 16 years and has become one of the listeners' most favourite characters! Her antics have kept the nation gripped and entertained, whether it be riding round Ambridge on a Harley Davidson, drinking the Bull and Cider shed dry with Eddie Grundy, absconding to Costa Rica with her beloved and very recently departed Tiger (oh, the louse!) or recklessly kicking off her sling-backs and leaping into bed with Tiger's brother Paul - not to mention the knitting, the Collagen, Calendar Girls and Justin Elliot!

In the show, Sunny will fill you in on all the behind the scenes stories about the world's longest running soap opera - expect an evening of anecdotes, banter, and favourite pieces from Sunny's long and distinguished acting career - humorous and touching in turn.

Plus, there will be a question and answer session with the audience about the making of The Archers - now in it's 65th year!

Where did that laugh come from? Did Victoria Wood really pull a pint in the Bull? How big are Tom's sausages?

And last but not least – a prize for the most original Archers question!!!

"Sunny dances in and out of Lilian's character with ease, but also with Drama….Shirley Valentine…..Under Milk Wood……stories and anecdotes galore…….an evening to remember!"

You don't have to be an Archers listener to enjoy this highly entertaining evening!

There is something for everyone!
