Mr Clary: "I have decided to open up to the public and reveal all.
"No more hiding behind a stage persona – I’m going to be myself.
"The question is will you be able to tell the difference?
"In this show I will reveal intimate secrets of my life and share the traumas that have led me to lead the life of a camp comic and renowned homosexual."
Weekday tickets are priced at £18 and weekends at £20, with concessions available.
Tickets for Fully Dilated are now on sale.
