From her straight-talking and quick-witted appearances on Have I Got News For You to her unforgettable and star-turning performances on Strictly Come Dancing, Ann has been heralded as a 'national living treasure' by the Guardian.

A rare anti-hunting Tory, who campaigned for prison education and once put on a miner's overalls to go down a coal mine, Ann has never been afraid of controversy.

With her renowned integrity and characteristic vigour, Ann will recall her life and highlight the people and events that most influenced her along the way. She will offer unique insight into her time as a Minister in three Departments and the Shadow Cabinet from 1990 until 2001. She had a formidable reputation in parliament and remains relentlessly outspoken. However, live on stage Ann is engaging, entertaining and refreshingly down to earth.

Don’t miss the life story of one of our most outspoken and celebrated politicians.
