Part of a country-wide tour, the live adaptation of the Douglas Adams classic will introduce newcomers to the characters like Marvin the Paranoid Android, and receive the Ultimate Answer To Life, The Universe and Everything as a snippet of Douglas’s comedic genius.

More than 35,000 people went to see The Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy Radio Show Live when it first toured in 2012, giving director Dirk Maggs ample excuse to bring it back this year.
