A theatre on the back of a bike, runaway taxmen turned circus performers, Hitler's nephew, a human exhibit in London Zoo, and a man intent on eating an entire bus: roll up for Mark Borkowski's rollercoaster ride through the weird and wonderful world of "the maverick". A compelling, autobiographical performance lecture, Adventure Capitalism is a rare opportunity to learn about the fine line between madness, genius and publicity from one the best, and best known, PR professionals in Britain today. Created in response to the needs of a world - and economy - in dramatic flux, Mark draws on his personal experience of working with some of the most inspiring and innovative thinkers of the last thirty years, and outlines his five rules for harnessing the power of the maverick. Adventure Capitalism - returning to Bristol Old Vic by popular demand - is a glorious celebration of risk-takers, outliers and artists, and why they might be more essential now than ever before.
