Monty Python star Michael Palin is coming to Dublin's Olympia Theatre for one night only on October 29.
Following the success of his tour in 2014, and to celebrate three decades of his diaries, Palin will mark the paperback publication of the final volume of his memoirs with a new show.
The Thirty Years Tour will see Palin use his diaries to tell the story of a life lived in the public eye from the end of the 1960's when his first child and a new television show called Monty Python's Flying Circus both took their first faltering steps.
In this two-part stage show, he brings to life thirty extraordinary years, trawling through a stock of rarely told stories, ranging from fighting to defend Monty Python in a US courthouse, the episodes of Ripping Yarn that never got made, Python's American groupies and what it's like filming with your own children.
Illustrated with film and video from all of Palin's various activities, The Thirty Years Tour is styled as an autobiography, live on stage.
Tickets €36.50 / €38.50 go on sale this Friday, April 17 at 9.00am via Ticketmaster.
