“This show is so named because unfortunately, it’s horribly accurate,” French said in a statement. “There have been far too many times I have made stupid mistakes or misunderstood something vital or jumped the gun in a spectacular display of twattery.
“I thought I might tell some of these buttock-clenching embarrassing stories to give Australian audiences a peek behind the scenes of my work life…Roll up! Book early to see the telly vicar lady be a total twat on stage, live in front of your very eyes. And ears.”
French was last here in 2016 on the Thirty Million Minutes tour, playing a total of 38 shows across the country. French’s new book The Twat Files will be out on Thursday, 12th October.
