The role of music in the life of comedian Lenny Henry will be explored when he returns to the Arena next Friday, April 15.
Music has always played a huge part in Lenny’s life and it was impersonating Stevie Wonder that first got his career flying when he won the New Faces talent show.

An accomplished comedian, actor, writer, TV presenter and fundraiser, Lenny still cites his first love as music.
In Cradle to Rave, in which he appears at 8pm, he will take the audience through the decades, exploring the exact role music has played in his life and continues to play. In true Lenny style there will be plenty of laughs and lots of funky tunes.
