Paul told Burnham-On-Sea.com: “It’s great to be back performing on the seafront here in Burnham – there was a great turnout of families on Monday to watch the first shows with some wonderful supportive comments.”
“We are looking forward to seeing many friends, locals and holidaymakers though August, September and October.”
