How I Escaped My Certain Fate

Beschreibung

In 2001, after over a decade in the business, the author quit stand-up, disillusioned and drained, and went off to direct a loss-making musical, Jerry Springer: The Opera. In this book, he details his return to live performance, and the journey that took him from an early retirement to his position as a critically acclaimed stand-up in Britain.
