Stephen has been entertaining international audiences for decades with his roles in Blackadder, A Bit of Fry and Laurie, Jeeves and Wooster and in films such as Wilde and Gosford Park. Stephen also hosted QI for twelve years and since 2017, his mythological retellings – including Mythos, Heroes and Troy – have become an international phenomenon.
Now, hear firsthand the ups and downs of Stephen’s personal voyage through life and showbusiness, the trials and tribulations of his writing and storytelling process and his reflections on time spent working with some of the world’s funniest and most interesting talents. Douglas Adams told him the real significance of the number 42 in The Hitchhikers Guide to The Galaxy – will he share the meaning of Life, The Universe and Everything with you?
With an opportunity to ask your own questions, this promises to be a fantastically entertaining evening sharing stories and remembered adventures with one our most stimulating and erudite raconteurs.
