About this Event

The advice that no one’s asked for, but Harry's here to give anyway.

Do you have ambition?

Are you an exhibitionist?

Want to find success in show business?

He’s done it all: been to university, trained at drama school, debuted in a West End play. So now Harry’s here to do what he does best – help.

'Avuncular' is a practical step-by-step guide on getting into drama school, impressing the panel, teachers, casting directors, producers and whatnot, and becoming what we all want: an acceptable homosexual.

This is the advice from someone who knows: someone who grew up under Section 28, Destiny’s Child and Sir Tony Blair.

And whatever anyone says, this has nothing to do with George Michael.
