Cannon and Ball started out on stage in the clubs of Lancashire, and although they are best known for their TV show, the stage has been a big part of their career.<\/p>\n

Along with their more traditional stand-up routine, in recent years, since their conversion to Christianity, they have performed in their own gospel show and ‘an audience with Cannon and Ball’.<\/p>\n

Can you help with details of other stage shows? <\/strong>Please email me if so<\/a><\/p>\n
