Wimbledon legend Andy Murray will take centre stage across the UK during his official theatre tour next summer.

The tennis player will look back over his illustrious career, revealing new anecdotes and the innermost details of a life lived as a world famous player.

The show will run for four nights in June next year throughout the UK grass court season, starting in Glasgow at the SECC Armadillo, and finishing at the New Wimbledon Theatre in London, on the eve of the Wimbledon Championships.

The show will be hosted and produced by BBC sports broadcaster, Andrew Cotter, someone who has interviewed Andy on multiple different occasions and has a excellent relationship with him.

The maximum capacity crowd will be 3,400 people, making it a rare and personal experience with one of the most beloved and entertaining athletes in the world.

Tickets go on sale to the general public this Thursday, November 14 at 10am, and can be purchased from Andy's website.

Speaking about the tour, Andy said: “After I retired this Summer, I wanted to try some different things. I don’t think a tennis player has done anything like this before so it felt like a great challenge for me. I haven’t stepped on a tennis court for a long time, so hopefully my fans will enjoy seeing me in this new setting”.
