Determined to save literature from extinction, Garry Starr sets out to perform every Penguin Classic in a single evening, armed with little more than boundless enthusiasm, flippers, and very little clothing. Racing through iconic works including The Little Prince, Moby-Dick, and many more, the solo comedy transforms celebrated novels into fast-paced physical comedy and absurd theatrical parody.

Created and performed by Damien Warren-Smith, the production is directed by Cal McCrystal, whose credits include One Man, Two Guvnors, Paddington 2, and Cirque du Soleil. The London production is produced by Francesca Moody Productions in association with MILKE.

Following sold-out runs in Edinburgh and the West End, the production returns to London at The Other Palace. The one-person show combines physical theatre, clowning, improvisation, and literary satire in a rapid-fire reinterpretation of classic fiction.
