Linda Smith was a great comedian but was also a committed and passionate anti-racist and anti-fascist. All at LMHR were saddened to hear of her recent death. Linda’s partner Warren was at the Hackney Empire RAR show in July and we are delighted to be able to help promote a cancer-awareness show that he is organising in Linda’s memory.
The superb combo of ‘Bill Wyman and his Rhythm Kings’ has just been added to the already fabulous line-up of tippy top entertainment reflecting some of Linda’s favourite comedians, comedy sketches, music and musicians.
