Entry only £14. Entry plus signed copy of Bibliomaniac £21. Doors 7pm. Show 8pm.Why play to 12,000 people when you can play to 12? In Autumn 2021, Robin Ince’s stadium tour with Professor Brian Cox was postponed due to the pandemic. Rather than do nothing, he decided instead to go on a tour of over a hundred bookshops in the UK, from Wigtown to Penzance; from Swansea to Margate, and yes even to Farsley!
Packed with witty anecdotes and tall tales, Bibliomaniac takes the reader on a journey across Britain as Robin explores his lifelong love of bookshops and books – and also tries to find out just why he can never have enough of them. It is the story of an addiction and a romance, and also of an occasional points failure just outside Oxenholme.
Robin Ince is the co-presenter of the award-wining BBC Radio 4 show and podcast, "The Infinite Monkey Cage". He has toured his award-winning stand-up across the world, both solo and with his radio double-act partner, Professor Brian Cox. He is the author of "I'm A Joke And So Are You" and "The Importance of Being Interested".
Part of Ink Slingers: Farsley Literature Festival, in association with Truman Books.
