Withnail and I star Richard E Grant has responded to Welsh fans' demand and added a date for his 'Audence With' tour this spring. The recent Bafta host is embarking on a tour in support of his new book, A Pocketful of Happiness.
The writing of the book came after Grant's wife of almost 40 years, Joan Washington, died in 2021, and his beloved other half set him a challenge: to find a pocketful of happiness in every day. The book and the show will see Richard regale his fans with both contemporary stories and recollections of his remarkable life and glittering career as his way of honouring Joan's challenge.
Oscar-nominee Richard, who is also known for his roles in Loki, Star Wars, Gosford Park and loads more, will be at Cardiff's New Theatre on Sunday, May 28 with tickets going on sale on Friday, March 17 at 10am. He posted on his social media this morning: "As requested, managed to secure a theatre in Wales - ‘tidy’ !"
