Wight Proms 2024 - A Wight Laugh

Yes! MIRIAM MARGOLYES is heading to Cowes with juicy, jaw-dropping stories from her eventful life and career to celebrate the paperback release of her bestselling and much acclaimed book, Oh Miriam!

Buckle up for an irrepressible, hilarious and moving show as Miriam shares some of her favourite anecdotes and divulges never-told-before stories and life lessons. From declaring her love to Vanessa Redgrave to being fed cockroaches by Steve Buscemi, from turnip-based comedy with Blackadder to being farted on by Arnold Schwarzenegger, from Graham Norton's sofa to Alan Cumming's camper van, Miriam’s life has been (and continues to be) an uproarious adventure.

As one of the most recognisable actresses, and now Vogue cover star, Miriam has charmed audiences across TV and film for over sixty years, earning her a special place in our hearts. As Stephen Fry aptly put it, ‘There is no one on earth quite so wonderful as Miriam Margolyes’.  

Reliably outrageous and always entertaining, join Miriam in conversation for a riotous occasion as full of life and surprises as the actress herself.
