Book Tour 2025

NHS psychiatrist, award-winning comedian, and Sunday Times best-selling author Benji Waterhouse is going on his first book tour!

Through a mixture of stand-up and chapter readings he unlocks the doors to the psych ward and answers life’s big questions.

What’s the secret to happiness? What’s the best way to escape from a psychiatric hospital? And what is the difference between a psychiatrist, a psychologist and a psychic?

Presented by Live Nation with Vintage books and in partnership with CALM.

NB. Show includes an exclusive book signing and Q&A (your best chance to speak to an NHS psychiatrist, without the 12 months waiting list)
