In this entertaining show, Tony Hawks combines storytelling, stand up, musical comedy and film clips to create two hours of fun. Amongst other things Tony will recount the amusing and sometimes fraught story of how he went from being ‘Comedian and author’ to ‘Comedian, author and film-maker’. His hilarious tales of how he became an independent film maker - producing both Round Ireland With A Fridge and Playing The Moldovans At Tennis - will be peppered with the wry observations that have made him such a hit on Radio 4’s Just A Minute and I’m Sorry I Haven’t A Clue.
