Alan Johnson is one of the most  popular politicians of recent times and now a best-selling author, his memoirs selling over half a million copies.

Inspired by his latest book, In My Life, in this highly entertaining show Alan tells his personal story with the help of some of the music that has soundtracked his life, from growing up as an orphan in a West London slum in the 50s to becoming a postman before rising through the Labour Party ranks to hold several cabinet posts, including Home Secretary.

Alan’s new book In My Life and all his previous books will be on sale at the venue and you can meet him to have them signed and dedicated.
