A Memoir

De: Tim Curry

Narrado por: Tim Curry

This memoir is a celebration of Tim Curry's’s life’s work, and a testament to his profound impact on the entertainment industry as we know it today.

There are few stars in Hollywood today that can boast the kind of resume Tony award-nominated actor Tim Curry has built over the past five decades. From his breakout role as Dr. Frank-N-Furter in The Rocky Horror Picture Show to his iconic depiction as the sadistic clown Pennywise in It to his critically acclaimed role as the original King Arthur in both the Broadway and West End versions of Spamalot, Curry redefined what it meant to be a “character actor,” portraying heroes and villains alike with complexity, nuance, and a genuine understanding of human darkness.

Now, in his memoir, Curry takes readers behind-the-scenes of his rise to fame from his early beginnings as a military brat to his formative years in boarding school and university, to the moment when he hit the stage for the first time. He goes in-depth about what it was like to work on some of the most emblematic works of the 20th century, constantly switching between a camera and a live audience. He also explores the voicework that defined his later career and provided him with a chance to pivot after surviving a catastrophic stroke in 2012 that nearly took his life.

With the upcoming 50th anniversary of The Rocky Horror Picture Show and the 40th anniversary of Clue, there’s never been a better time for Tim to share his story with the world.

Touching and informative

Was great to hear about his work and growing up. Glad he was able to share about his health and his surviving through all he has and is going through.

Great read

I loved this memoir. Start to finish, thoroughly enjoyable. I recommend this for even a minor fan of Mr. Curry.

Tim Curry: Always

I love everything about this book. As the cowriter of the autobiographies of two performing artists who endured devastating physical disabilities—original Mouseketeer and actress Annette Funicello and soul singing legend Teddy Pendergrass—I know how difficult it is to open your heart and invite readers into your world. Curry does all that and more. It’s beautifully written and inspiring and arch and witty and funny. Beautiful!

Thank You Tim Curry!!

I can't say how much I enjoyed and appreciated this audiobook! I've missed Tim Curry and was so touched to take this journey with him! He sure connected with this middle ages mom!! I'm excited to see what he does next!

An honest and genuine person

I loved his open, direct, commentary on his life. He tells of his early child hood and of his immediate family. Like a mystery and a puzzle, you are drawn into his life. Optimistic, and real!! What an amazing journey, through this world. I’m cheering for you, Tim Curry!

Outstanding

Amazing book and performance. Great work by Tim Curry. A real blessing to listen to.

The original Master of Mischief

Hearing Tim speake his memoir is a balm to my soul. Tim’s voice, at times, is as powerful as Frank-N-Furter and, at others, a quavering struggle due to the stroke over a dozen years ago, reminds us all of the importance of being in the moment.

Thank you, Mr. Curry, for sharing.

Smashing

Tim Curry is an amazing human. Learning about his life was wonderful. I truly hope to meet him one day.

Deeply touching and lovely !

Clue brought me here, I have never listened to audio book in my life, but felt so compelled to listen to this since he went through the trouble of recording it. It was so lovely to hear his story in his own voice. He has a wonderful way of expressing him self. I just loved this so much I thought it was touching and at one point I was listening to this in bed and thought it was so sweet he said he could picture me and his audience listening to this in bed. I hope he knows how loved he is. My sincerest applause. Love you Mr. Tim Curry. Thank you for sharing your adventures and many more to you.

Brilliantly done

Tim Curry sounds wonderful, funny, warm, touching.... A treat to hear his many stories in his own voice and with his expressive asides.
