Gervase Phinn @ Harpenden Public Halls
An Evening with Gervase Phinn - 26 May 2009
"Gervase Phinn is one of the
most accomplished public speakers of any kind. A natural
storyteller, he combines the timing of the professional comedian
with palpable warmth and the ability to deliver a message that is
just more than a series of jokes" - The Times
"Funny, touching and entertaining" - The Daily
Express
An Evening with Gervase Phinn will have you in stitches,
as he shares his hilarious tales of life as a schools inspector in
the Yorkshire Dales. Dubbed "the James Herriot of schools", this
best-selling author, radio and TV personality is not to be
missed!
One of Britain's most popular writers and performers, Gervase is
best known for his four autobiographical novels: "The Other Side of
the Dale", "Over Hill and Dale", "Head Over Heels in the Dales" and
"Up and Down in the Dales".
With his keen ear for the absurd and sharp eye for the ludicrous,
Gervase now embarks on his 8th national tour. Having
reached an audience of over 250,000 people, he is one of the most
consistently popular live performers in the country.
