“I love touring plays, but every bit as much as that, I love talking about my books in cities and towns across the country. I’ve found that people are fantastically warm and keenly interested: as in the theatre, each talk is entirely different as people react differently to the - though i say it myself - remarkable story I’m telling. Since childhood, I’ve been addicted to biography: I’m fascinated by my fellow human beings and long to know what makes them what they are. Orson Welles was one of the most completely, improbably, extravagant human beings who ever lived. I’ve tried to make the reader feel as if they’d met him. On the reading tour I can convey that even more vividly, and look forward to sharing what I know about Welles with people across the country this Spring - 27 one night gigs. Coming soon to a venue near you. Warm regards Simon Callow"
