Parky; The One Man Show
Date: 1 November 2010
Venue: Cadogan Hall
Tickets: £50, £45, £40, VIP ticket: £100 (VIP post-concert reception with Sir Michael and stars).

Fresh from a sell out tour of Australia and New Zealand, Parky; The One Man Show is a personal insight into Sir Michael Parkinson CBE's fifty-year broadcasting career. Taking place at Cadogan Hall in Sloane Square on the 1st November, this event will look back on his legendary career. Parky has interviewed more than 3,000 of the world's most famous people. Now, the renowned broadcaster will share his greatest moments, live on stage, supported by clip highlights from his career including long lost footage.

The Bobby Moore Fund is delighted that Sir Michael Parkinson CBE has chosen to stage a special one-off production of the show in London this year in aid of the Fund. For anyone who read and enjoyed 'Parky', Sir Michael's autobiography of 2008, you should expect the same humour, warmth and inimitable knack for story-telling.

"I am delighted to be supporting the Bobby Moore Fund through this performance. I knew Bobby well and his tragic death from bowel cancer at such a young age was a great loss to us all. The money raised from the One Man Show will help tackle this terrible disease so please show your support," said Sir Michael Parkinson.

Tickets are now on sale and available from Cadogan Hall. To book online please visit www.cadoganhall.com or call the Cadogan box office, Monday to Saturday from 10am to 8pm on 020 7730 4500.
