Johnnie Casson is a real living legend on the UK comedy circuit.
Johnnie has a unique style of delivery, some clever material and an exceptional warmth, this dynamic and genuinely funny Yorkshire man, with the ‘mixed-up metaphors’, has a very natural asset – ‘like-ability’, illustrated within minutes of him commencing his original blend of comedy when smiles and titters soon turn to uncontrollable laughter.
Des O’Connor said Johnnie was one of the funniest ever comedians to appear on his show.
Bruce Forsyth said ‘Johnnie Casson is so funny he could become an enemy.’
Sir John Mills, the legendary actor, at a Johnnie Casson performance was heard to remark, ‘I haven’t laughed so much since I heard Max Miller in 1935!’.
We are delighted to welcome Johnnie back to The North Pier and perform at The Joe Longthorne Studio, named in honour of one of Johnnie’s close and much missed friends, the late Joe Longthorne MBE.
