Ida Barr is the creation of Olivier-award winner Christopher Green also known for BBC Radio 4 favourite Tina C. Ida has graced stages at the National Theatre, Tates Modern and Britain and the Barbican, as well as livening up many a variety and comedy night around the globe. She's appeared in her own series, Artificial Hip Hop, on BBC Radio 4 with special guest, the beatboxer known as Shlomo. Ida Barr is the People's Pensioner, a music hall singer turned RnB rapper, as heard on BBC Radio 1Xtra. What better way to celebrate her glorious Majesty's Jubilee Olympics than with an evening of good old fashioned variety, featuring the cream of British and International circus, comedy, music and showbiz, hosted by Ida. It will be like the Good Old Days, so bring your sing-a-long voices and if you want to bring a nylon crinoline, bonnet or false moustache so much the better.
