'Just when they thought I was out, they pull me back in.'

Oscar-winning star Al Pacino is set to come to Glasgow for the first time on a UK tour celebrating his near 50-year career.

Glasgow’s Clyde Auditorium will host An Evening With Al Pacino on May 19, where the 74-year-old will share personal stories, never seen before footage as well as offering inspiring actors tips on how to succeed.

Pacino, famous for his roles in classics such as The Godfather and Scarface, said: “I’m looking forward to being in Scotland for the first time, meeting the people and seeing some of Scotland's legendary scenery - it's a breathtaking country."

"Coming to Glasgow will be one of the highlights of the tour for me and I'm looking forward to experiencing a warm Scottish welcome and sharing an evening of engaging conversation and laughter with my Scottish fans.”

Tickets for the May event will go on sale on this Thursday at 9am from www.gigsinscotland.com.
Prices for the event will range from £65 to £150, and there will be a chance to meet the actor face-to-face with meet-and-greet packages on offer.
