0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to the rest of this history. Now Tom, we have some very, very exciting news, |
0:07.8 | don't we? |
0:08.8 | Dominic, I think exciting barely does it justice. We are going on a live tour. I mean, |
0:13.8 | the whole thing is so surreal, but basically we did two live shows, didn't we, in Clapham. |
0:19.0 | And they incredibly sold out in minutes. And there is, it seems, appetite for more. So |
0:23.7 | for those people who have not yet been to one of our live shows, we have a remarkable |
0:27.0 | approach, I think it's fair to say. So the first half Tom sings Marilyn Monroe's greatest hits. |
0:31.8 | And in the second half, I do a PowerPoint presentation on British economic policy of the mid-1970s. |
0:36.6 | So it's an absolute riot, fun for all the family. I mean, there's absolutely nothing about that. |
0:41.5 | Not to look forward to. It's also not true. It's honestly a lot more fun than that. We will |
0:46.2 | discuss exactly what we're going to do near at the time. But here's what you need to know. |
0:50.1 | There are going to be three dates. First of all, the 25th of April, we will be in London on the |
0:55.9 | West End at the Druery Lane Theatre, very surreal. Tom, we are taking over, I believe, from |
1:01.8 | Frozen. It's so surreal. And then on the 26th of April, we are going to Edinburgh, |
1:07.1 | Dasha Hall. So that would be brilliant. Very much so you forward to that Tom. So, |
1:10.2 | Dominique, try out for the return for you 25 years since your one-star review, given by the |
1:15.0 | Scotsman at the Edinburgh Festival. But I tell the Scotsman comes this, give us more than one |
1:18.6 | star. All right. And it's fair to say I've got a few scores to settle with the Scotsman's |
1:22.0 | theatre critics. And finally, we will be finishing off on the 30th of April at the Lowry in |
1:27.5 | Sulford Greater Manchester. So Tom, tell people about getting tickets. We're announcing |
1:32.2 | yesterday Thursday the 15th of December. Tickets are available right now for Restless History Club |
1:37.0 | Members. So if you're not a Restless History Club member, you can go to www.restlesshistorypolter.com |
