Escaped psychiatric patient Kevin Haggerty is not pleased about his diagnosis, even less pleased about being on a section of the Mental Health Act and distinctly upset about being told he is not the reincarnation of the pharaoh Ramses II. On his way to Egypt, via the Tesco Express, he stumbles across the nemesis to all his plans: Millie – a lost six-year-old. Together they embark on a journey that will change both their lives forever.
Written and performed by stand-up poet and psychiatric nurse Rob Gee (“Seriously funny” – Sunday Mirror), Kevin, King of Egypt has just completed a multi-award winning tour across North America.
This book is the script of the show and contains an audio CD of the performance.
