The title tells you exactly what it is - a conversation
between actor and audience. In reality it is a rehearsed
structure of autobiography and anecdote with verse illustrations
based on his experiences on stage and on film locations
over the years.
John Cairney dips into his vast bran tub of personal
and professional recollections and pulls out a story
to fit. He uses many of his own verses from his All
My Own Work programme such as What is a Woman?,
If I Had My Life to Live Over, A Scotch Catalogue
and Nostalgia for a Tenement.
As he says, 'This show has been a lifetime in rehearsal
and I'll keep on doing it till I get it right.'
