Gyles Brandreth - Odd Boy Out, at the Capitol Theatre in Horsham

‍

'I am what my childhood made me.’

In Odd Boy Out Gyles Brandreth provides an extraordinarily revealing account of growing up and coming of age in an apparently well-to-do but always strapped-for-cash middle-class English family.

It is a story about the ordinary things - family life, happiness, ambition, and love, but it is also about adventures - meeting princes and presidents, visiting Death Row in America, exploring the sex clubs of Copenhagen. It is a story of a boy blessed with wit and what he got up to and the people he met growing up in the most wonderful city in all the world in those extraordinary years after the Second World War. The autobiography is filled with unforgettable stories by one of the country's most unlikely personalities. It is a powerful and passionate exploration of childhood - how our heritage, our parents, and our upbringing make us who we are.

Presented in association with Clive Conway Productions, you can also join Gyles Brandreth at the Capitol Theatre in Horsham, West Sussex on Sunday 26 September 2021 at 5 pm where he will discuss his autobiography.
