Pullyman & Friends show raises £6,000

Sold out show at the Gaiety last night

A sold out evening of poetry at the Gaiety Theatre has raised over £6,000 for charity.

The Pullyman & Friends revue last night brought together stars of the Island's poetry scene including Vinty Kneale, Stacey Astill and the Manx Bard John 'Dog' Callister.

There were also cameo appearances from the Manx Concert Brass, singers Geoff Collier and Simon Fletcher - and even the Lieutenant Governor.

All proceeds from the evening went to the Isle of Man Parkinson's Society and Manx Alzheimer's Society.
