Based in Oxford, since 2001, we produce shows in over 100 theatres up and down the country from Aberdeen to Taunton. We bring you the most engaging personalities whether they are Alastair Campbell, John Sergeant, William Hague or Baroness Shirley Williams.

The format of the shows is very simple. In the first half the personality discusses their life and work with the interviewer and in the second they take questions from the audience. This intimate, interactive aspect makes An Audience With a memorable experience for any audience. The evenings are simultaneously humorous and thought provoking. When asked about the success of An Audience With, Clive Conway says:

People are always interested in meeting their favourite personalities and hearing what they have to say. We have been thrilled with the response that we have had to our shows with many of our audiences returning to them again and again.

As well as An Audience With we produce light entertainment consisting of poetry, literature and music performed by some of the countrys best-loved entertainers including Anton Rogers, Stephanie Cole and Edward Fox.

He worked with several well-known actors including Penelope Keith, John Nettles and Edward Fox, among others.

The very first An Audience With., in 2001, featured Tony Benn. The evening was a major box office success and Clive Conway Celebrity Productions has now grown to have an annual turnover of well over 1 million.

Since 2002 Clive has worked closely with Sir David Frost whose links with the political world have proved an invaluable asset.

Alastair Campbell attracted a sell out audience of 2400 at the Royal Festival Hall and was joined on tour by John Prescott, Mick Hucknall and Kirsty Young as well as the worlds media.
