BARRYMORE

Gisborne Cosmopoliton Club was host to an evening of excellent local entertainment with the Barrymore Show. The compere, Peter Burrows, was in outstanding form creating the illusion of Barrymore with all the crazy antics which have made Barrymore a household name. The entertainment flowed and laughter persisted until well after the show was over.
