What has Ben Elton done?
He’s written the most eagerly awaited show business autobiography of the year, and now he’s doing a book launch tour. That’s what.
To celebrate the release of What Have I Done?, Ben Elton will be interviewed live on stage – by comedian HG Nelson in Australia, and broadcaster Jesse Mulligan in New Zealand – to share stories from his extraordinary life and career.
From The Young Ones and Blackadder to We Will Rock You and Upstart Crow, Ben has helped shape the cultural landscape for over four decades — and now, for the first time, he’s telling it all.
This unmissable live event will see Ben dive deep into his life’s most revealing moments: the behind-the-scenes triumphs and chaos, the personal and professional highs and lows, the revolution in stand-up comedy, and that ever-present ‘little bit of politics’.
Expect candour, comedy, and a career like no other.
