Meet Alan Cumming

Come to Waterstones Brighton and meet the wonderful Alan Cumming as he signs copies of his fabulous new memoir You Gotta Get Bigger Dreams.

You Gotta Get Bigger Dreams is a magical concoction of the mischievous, tender, whimsical, and debauched real-life adventures of Alan Cumming, told in his own words and pictures. In forty-five picture essays, Cumming recounts his real-life adventures (and often, misadventures), illustrated by his own equally entertaining photographs. From an awkward bonding session with Elizabeth Taylor to poignant stories about his family and friends to some harsh words of wisdom imparted by Oprah that make up the title of this collection, You Gotta Get Bigger Dreams is as eclectic, enchanting, and alive as its author.

Alan Cumming has done it all! He is an award winning Shakespearian actor, he has provided the voice for a smurf (twice!), he has made films with Stanley Kubrick and The Spice Girls, he has had his own photographic exhibition, he has won a Tony and an Olivier award and been nominated for Golden Globe, Emmy and SAG awards and in 2009 he was awarded the OBE for both his work and his commitment to the progression of LGBT rights in Britain and the United States of America. WE CAN'T WAIT TO MEET HIM!
