Brian Cox to tour in one man show
The final show is at the Adelphi Theatre in London's West End on November 4.
Cox said: 'I am looking forward to this tour as it marks something a little different for me – sharing the stage with myself.
'As the title indicates, the show will focus more than ever on my life and career.
'It should be a lot of fun.'
Cox, who was born in Dundee, will be joined on stage for the show's second half by producer Clive Tulloh, who will put questions from the audience to him.
Publicists said Cox will 'take audiences on a journey through his life and incredible career – from the backstreets of Dundee to the glittering lights of Hollywood – a journey that is full of laughter and pathos.
'Expect candour, searing honesty and hilarious stories.'
Cox trained at Dundee Rep Theatre before going on to work at the Royal Lyceum Theatre, the Royal National Theatre and the Royal Shakespeare Company, where he first gained recognition for his portrayal of King Lear.
His accolades include two Olivier Awards and a Primetime Emmy Award. He also won a Golden Globe for his portrayal of Logan Roy in Succession.
