She is, of course, Silksoundbooks star audio book reader June Whitfield and her amazing showbiz career spans more than seven decades but she's showing no signs of quitting just yet.
June says that she still loves tackling new challenges and she'll be doing just that when she sets out on a national tour with
We'll Meet Again, a nostalgic look back at the music of the Second World War years.
'It's definitely my kind of music' said June,
'there's a 27-piece orchestra so the sound will be wonderful and all the great numbers are on the bill - tunes by big bandleaders like Glen Miller, Benny Goodman and Ray Noble, it's all fantastic stuff.' The Expedition of Humphry Clinker read as an unabridged audio book by
June Whitfield ,
Hywel Simons &
Suzy Aitchison is also pretty fantastic! It is written in the form of a series of letters the five members of Squire Bramble’s household send as they journey around Britain and is a wonderful, gentle comedy.
We'll Meet Again is on in Birmingham on September 3rd, Nottingham on the 4th, Glasgow on the 5th and Manchester on the 6th. You can find the rest of the dates online.
