Julian Clary: Fully Dilated

Mick Perrin Worldwide by arrangement with Mandy Ward Artist ManagementProfessional company

60 minutesMusic Hall
It's too early for filth, so think cucumber sandwiches and cream teas. No, not cucumbers, in case I accidentally shove one up my jacksie. Old habits die hard. I've decided to open up to the public and reveal all. No more hiding behind a stage persona; I'm going to be myself. The question is will you be able to tell the difference? In this show I'll reveal intimate secrets of my life and share the traumas that have led me to lead the life of a camp comic and renowned homosexual. 'A tsunami of smut' (Guardian).

About the show

Julian Clary promises to open up and reveal all in Fully Dilated — moving beyond his stage persona to share the intimate secrets and traumas that have led him to the life of a camp comic and renowned homosexual. Described by the Guardian as a tsunami of smut, the show asks whether audiences will even be able to tell the difference when he's finally being himself. Presented by Mick Perrin Worldwide at Music Hall, the show runs for 60 minutes and is strictly for audiences aged 18 and over.

Why see this show?

Julian Clary peels back the persona in a show that promises intimate revelations alongside his trademark wit. Irreverent, sharp and warm — a Fringe evening in the company of one of Britain's best-known camp comics.
