James Valentine w/ Special Guest Richard Glover
Afternoons Tonight! returns to Chatswood Saturday 29 September with an all new show and special guest Richard Glover.
All the regular segments, and other stuff, will randomly emerge… as will the first full-length conversation between Richard Glover and James Valentine. If you saw last year’s show and loved it, if you listen to the radio version, or you just like to laugh, then don’t miss this all new live show.
Afternoons Tonight! is a fantastically funny and interactive night at the theatre and a great insight into how talk radio really works.
Expect the latest versions of such legendary segments as This Is What I Live With, Ex, The New Normal and Petty Crime Stoppers… they’ll all be there. Move over Possum Woman and Eric the Breastfeeder – we have new callers you just have to hear! Who knows, maybe he’ll even attempt… Nothing.

Our tickets were nowhere to be found on arrival which was a disappointing start - not quite certain where the glitch occurred but all sorted out very efficiently, pleasantly and with great customer service by a wonderful staff member at The Concourse called Alison. Once we were settled into our seats it was a fabulous evening of entertainment - James Valentine was extremely engaging, musically talented, very relatable and hilariously funny - his partnerfor the night, Richard Glover, was a little quieter yet quite quirky and together they made for a great night out. I am now a raving fan and they've certainly gained a new listener
