Saturday night, April 16, the annual Tyrone-Snyder Township Public Library \u201cfun\u201d raising concert will go back to the homeland of Robin Hood, Sherwood Forest and Nottingham, England as they bring to the Tyrone Area High School auditorium stage Barry St. Ives. Yes, Barry St. Ives is from Nottingham, England.
\nBarry will be appearing as part of the Tyrone-Snyder Township Public Library\u2019s big annual concert drive to raise the funds to cover the annual mortgage payments on the new library located in downtown Tyrone.
\n\u201cBarry is a standup comic and does some outstanding impersonations,\u201d said Chuck Banas, the library\u2019s chairman and organizer of the annual concerts.
\nBarry St. Ives has performed at the London Palladium and worked with some of England\u2019s finest, including Benny Hill, before coming to the United States 15 years ago.
\n\u201cWhen we put up the hand posters advertising this year\u2019s annual concert, I had numerous individuals stop me and tell me that they had recognized Barry from his appearances on television,\u201d added Banas.
\nSince Barry has been in the United States, he has delighted audiences all over the country and at sea, appearing with many of the world\u2019s greatest entertainers such as Tom Jones, Willie Nelson, Pat Boone and Engelbert Humperdinck in Las Vegas.
\nHis light-hearted comedy and realistic impressions are only superseded by his amazing voice and British charm. This winning combination has made Barry St. Ives a favorite with multi-national audiences both on land and the sea.
