Stephen Fry: British Comedian and Author on discusses life, show business, 'An Evening with Stephen Fry'

Stephen Fry is a man of many talents.   He’s an award-winning comedian, actor, presenter, director, and has claimed the title of ‘bestselling author’ multiple times.   His latest work is the final instalment of his Greek Myths series, ‘Odyssey’ retelling the tale of Odysseus from Homer’s epic poem.   Along with this, Fry is bringing his live show to New Zealand stages, offering an unforgettable evening filled with entertaining stories about his journey through life and show business.  He’s been in the business for nearly five decades and told Mike Hosking that he still sometimes finds it difficult to believe.  “I still think of myself as a little boy watching Parkinson interview comedy stars, and film stars, and so on, and just dreaming of the amazing idea of being famous."  “It’s extraordinary,” Fry said.  “You'd think after all these years, it would have lost its lustre, but actually it hasn't.”  Questions are welcome at Fry’s live show, the second half of the show being entirely filled with questions from the audience.   “People are free to ask questions as serious as they like, but also as frivolous as they like.”  “I’m not someone who finds it difficult to talk.”  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
