Rolf Harris
THIS EVENT ENDED ON THE 8TH FEBRUARY 2013
Nearby

Multitalented Aussie Rolf Harris has been adopted by Britain and become legendary for his artwork, TV presenting, silly songs and, not forgetting, his love of the wobble board. This February, the eccentric entertainer will be stopping by Southbank Centre's Royal Festival Hall for an evening of unique family entertainment. The audience can expect plenty of sing-along opportunities as he'll be performing classic songs 'Stairway to Heaven', 'Tie me Kangaroo Down, Sport', 'Sun Arise' and 'Two Little Boys'. He'll also paint live on stage, be joined by a seven-piece band and play possibly one of the biggest didgeridoos in the world. Strewth, now that's what you call a variety show!
