Eric Idle: Idle in Provence

Eric Idle: Idle in Provence

Show type: Tour

Join legendary comedian, writer, and Monty Python icon Eric Idle for a special live event marking the release of his wonderfully funny and deeply personal new book, Idle in Provence.

In 1971, at the height of Monty Python’s global success, Idle escaped the chaos by purchasing a crumbling farmhouse in the south of France. What followed was not quite the peaceful idyll he imagined — but something far richer.

Idle in Provence is a riotous, moving memoir spanning fifty years of mishaps, friendships, heartbreak, and hilarity. Think A Year in Provence, but with more absurdity, more setbacks, and, naturally, much more spam.
