Garry Starr: Classic Penguins
Fresh from a sell-out season in London’s West End, Garry Starr is (still) hell-bent on saving books from extinction by performing every Penguin Classic novel ever written. In an hour. Mostly naked (but with flippers).
The comic wunderkind takes us on a literary adventure through the world’s most iconic works of fiction. From The Little Prince to Moby Dick and everything in between, nothing is safe from being lampooned with the utmost nincompoopery.
