An Evening with Armistead Maupin Tour

Much-loved author and LGBT activist Armistead Maupin can be seen around the UK in the An Evening With Armistead Maupin tour from September 2019.

In his first ever UK tour, Fane and Kilimanjaro present an evening with the bestselling, much-loved author and LGBT activist, Armistead Maupin. Maupin has been blazing a trail through US popular culture since the 1970s, when his iconic and ground-breaking series Tales of the City was first published as a column in the San Francisco Chronicle. The novel series has been taking the literary world by storm ever since and was recently adapted by Netflix into a critically acclaimed new series, starring Laura Linney, Olympia Dukakis and Ellen Page.
