Dave GormanтАЩs tales of travelling the world in his one man shows, Are You Dave Gorman?

His 90 minute documentary, Dave Gorman in America Unchained broadcast on More 4 in 2008 delivering more than six times the channelтАЩs average viewing figures for the slot.
Dave Gorman has also had a phenomenal track record with his books Are You Dave Gorman? and Dave GormanтАЩs Googlewhack Adventure, that climbed to number one in the Sunday Times non-fiction Bestsellers List. His third book America Unchained was released in 2008.

Dave Gorman spent autumn 2009 touring the country with his show Sit Down, Pedal, Pedal, Stop, and Stand Up. Due to popular demand the tour was extended into 2010 and the DVD of this tour can be purchased online through Digital Stores.
He returned to the Edinburgh Fringe in 2011 with his new show Dave GormanтАЩs Powerpoint Presentation. It was his first run at the Fringe for 8 years. Dave Gorman performed 28 shows in 26 days and each and every one of them sold out! He then toured the show throughout October/November and, due to popular demand, extended the tour into 2012 with another 30+ shows around the country and four nights in London at the Southbank Centre.
Dave Gorman wrapped up the UK tour with a show at The Bloomsbury Theatre which was held as a benefit for Shelter before taking the show to Montreal for an 8 show run at the Just For Laughs Comedy Festival who also took him and the show to Sydney at The Sydney Opera House.
