A weekend hosted by the brilliant Lynne Truss was another one of those gigs to die for. Harry has always loved Lynne's work - "from 'Eats Shoots & Leaves', her brilliant sports columns in the Times and hilarious BBC monologues she really is genius. To appear on the same bill was great, but in a dreamy castle on the banks of Loch Ness was simply amazing!" Harry is the perfect after-dinner cabaret, not only the jaw-dropping virtuoso and witty patter, but every event will be truly bespoke as Harry will tailor an exclusive improvised programme based on your requests.
