20 years ago, Simon Morley had an idea. An idea that would blossom into one of the craziest shows on the planet, Puppetry of the Penis. Find out how a bit of sibling rivalry would be the catalyst for a theatrical juggernaut that would travel to over 40 countries and be performed in five languages. For the first time, Simon tells us how it all began and shares his hilarious journey from his bedroom to Las Vegas. What a wild old ride it's been!
