Roger Moore To Kick Off Tour of AN EVENING WITH SIR ROGER MOORE at The Marlowe Theatre

SIR Roger Moore, the legendary film actor, opens his tour in Canterbury next month.

He will be discussing his astonishing life and career, with inside stories and exclusive anecdotes ranging from his internationally-renowned TV series "The Saint and The Persuaders," through to Hollywood blockbusters and, of course, the 007 films, in which he starred as James Bond between 1973 and 1985.

Gareth Owen, who has interviewed Roger previously at the BFI Southbank, the Barbican Centre and at various UNICEF fundraisers throughout Europe, will host the talk. He is an author of 11 books and has worked with Roger on his autobiography "My Word Is My Bond," "Bond On Bond" and Roger's latest book: "Last Man Standing: Tales From Tinseltown," due for release next month.

In his latest collection of true stories from his stellar career, Roger lifts the lid on the movie business, from Hollywood to Pinewood. Wonderfully entertaining and laugh-out-loud funny, this selection of tales from the world of the movies is vintage Moore at his very best.

The show includes an audience Q&A where attendees have the opportunity to put their own question to the Hollywood legend and get the inside track from Roger on a career that took him from his beginnings in South London as the son of a local policeman to 007, via the golden age of Hollywood.

"An Evening With Sir Roger Moore" is at The Marlowe Theatre at 5pm on Sunday 14 September. Tickets are £25 (booking fee applies); to book call the Box Office on 01227 787787 or go to http://marlowetheatre.com.
