An Evening with Richard Digance

25th May 2025

We’re delighted to announce the return of a musical legend! West Ham born Richard Digance has been on the planet for 75 years, on stage for 58 of them.

If this BAFTA Nominated entertainer and a recipient of The Gold Award from The British Academy of Composers and Songwriters doesn’t have songs to sing or stories to tell, then it would be a shock to one and all. He has released 45 albums, written 24 books and composed audiobook music and songs for Bill Bryson. He has worked in America with movie star Steve Martin and recalls two of his greatest moments as playing The London Palladium with Robin Williams and a guitar duet on TV with Queen guitarist Brian May.

He still tours extensively and in 2024 completed a musical about Isambard Kingdom Brunel. His TV career spanned 17 years, appearing on Channel 4s Countdown nearly 200 times And now – by popular demand – he’s back in Faversham. You are invited to join him for this special intimate performance. ‘Richard Digance is a national treasure.’ – Bob Harris, BBC Radio 2 ‘Hilarious, sentimental, irreverent and, above all, ours.’ – Mike Atherton ‘One of the British Isles’ funniest men and one of its finest guitarists.’ – Manx Independent
