A Norman Wisdom impersonator and lookalike will appear next month.

Glenn Ford will star in a comedy production called Don't Laugh at Me from 8pm on Friday, August 2.

This will be at the Astor Community Theatre in Stanhope Road, Deal.

He has previously put on this performance, sub-titled The Glenn Ford Laughter Show, at the venue.

Mr Ford visited his character's namesake pub, the Sir Norman Wisdom in Queen Street, Deal, at the end of a 135-mile charity walk in June 2017.

Sir Norman Wisdom, famous for his slapstick films in the 1950s and 1960s, once lived in a children’s home in Deal.

While growing up in the town he worked in the Lipton’s foodstore and would later frequently come back to visit relatives.

Sir Norman, who died in 2010, aged 95, was a keen supporter of Deal Hospital and on occasions came to open its annual fete.

This show in named after Sir Norman's theme song Don't Laugh at Me ('cause I'm a Fool).

Doors 7.30pm. Tickets £18.
