Hartlepool's David Eagle brings his skills as a comedian and as an award-winning folk musician together to great delight. He's equally brilliant when it comes to telling tales about people's reaction to his blindness as he is when singing pornographic reworkings of George Formby on the accordion.
The adventures of blind comedian and folk singer David Eagle: accosted by faith healers, bamboozling aggressive Australians and escaping arrest after a nocturnal accordion-based antisocial incident. Plus a couple of his songs, one of which was described by the Guardian as 'a comic tour de force', and another one which wasn't. Best Variety Show, Leicester Comedy Festival. 'Brilliant, nuts, heartily recommend!' (Rufus Hound). A regular on BBC Radio 4's The Now Show. Three-time winner, BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards. Leicester Square Theatre New Comedian Of The Year. Directed by Ben Van der Velde.
