The Anchor, Portstewart

It’s official - the summer has arrived and The Anchor Complex is ready for it with a series of acts on Fridays that will be the talk of the area.

It all starts this Friday, July 19 th the appearance of Stevie Starr from Britain’s Got Talent.

Stevie Starr is a professional regurgitator.

A bizarre phenomenon to the world of showbiz, his act consists of swallowing various items (coins, light bulbs, balloons, nails, billiard balls, dry sugar, goldfish) and regurgitating them. He has never described exactly how this is done, and the implausibility of some of his regurgitations have led some to believe that he is an illusionist. However, Stevie never fails to return all items without injury to himself or the fish!

The following Friday features award-winning comic Gary Moir in a tribute to the genius that is Billy Connolly. And the weekend after that a kind of lunacy will descend on the venue when the venue will take on a Beach Party theme! All of these fantasitic acts will appear in the newly refurbished Anchorage, whilst Brian Moore is tasked with then taking the party into the wee small hours.
