GP Taylor Visits After Hours Live

Author GP Taylor tells his fascinating life-story at After Hours Live 

New York Times best-selling author GP Taylor gave the audience at After Hours Live an unforgettable evening of stories and tales all based on his own life journey. He spoke about growing up and being expelled from school, being unable to read for many years, how he came to be an ordained priest as well as all the adventures and twists and turns his life has taken since becoming a successful author. An unashamedly Christian message given in a no-nonsense unpretentious way, Graham engaged with the audience who all thoroughly enjoyed hearing about his fascinating life.
It was also interesting to note that all of GP Taylor's books are about to be turned into movies! The first one is being released in a few months time: 'Muriah Mundi' which includes a star-studded cast. So watch this space cinema lovers!
Our next After Hours Live, on Friday 5th July, sees Paul Kerensa, a stand-up comedian performing at After Hours Live’s Rose Fair Special! Paul has won many awards including ITV’s Take The Mike Award in 2002 and is a sitcom writer, most notably being on the writing team of BBC 1’s ‘Miranda’ and sketch shows such as ‘Dead Ringers’. This event is one not to miss! Come along for a great night out.

Ice-cream vans, a wide variety of food options in the food court, the Tearfund Tea Tent that serves as a music venue as well as a great place for a cream tea on the lawns.
