And one of Britain’s most dangerous men and longest serving prisoners, Tony Beckton, talks about his continuous struggle to adapt to life on the outside.
He’ll be regaling the audience with stories of his antics in prisons across the UK.
The tour will be a funny and fascinating insight into the minds of four very different characters, as they struggle to work out how they fit into a modern world, which has perhaps left them behind.
Simon Day will be premiering the show at Edinburgh Festival from August 16 to August 20 at The Pleasance Dome.
Tickets for his performance at Harpenden Public Halls on October 14 cost £20.
