He is the creative force behind Garry Starr Performs Everything, Conquers Troy and Greece Lightning, plus you might have spotted him in Love My Way and Law and Order UK. His multi-award winning show Classic Penguins in which he struts in a tailcoat with no pants and penguin flippers and leaves audiences roaring.

In this episode of Onwards to Victory Damien reveals why he ditched his smartphone to turbo charge creativity, what dating life on tour is really like, why a universal basic income could be the lifeline every artist needs, and a wealth of captivating anecdotes, reflections and behind the scenes insights.
