Legal Immigrant is Alan Cumming's collection of musings on his experiences as a US citizen, growing older, and what it feels like to be an immigrant in today's America, featuring songs and stories that are as eclectic and idiosyncratic as Alan himself. The audio, recorded live at the Minetta Lane Theatre, is a smorgasbord of genres, styles, and tales. Replete with laughter, tears and, of course, provocation, featuring covers of songs made famous by a diverse array of musical legends.

Now available in Dolby Atmos on Audible.

Anecdotes & Songs, not a story, but that's OK!

a bunch of anecdotes & songs delivered on a stage to a live studio audience. so not a book but the anecdotes are as good as most star-studded biographies. not a musical fan, more a fan of Alan's from his movie/tv work, but he has a stellar voice, some great accompaniment so I was able to enjoy the majority of the songs regardless. Like anything Alan does - full of heart.

More recorded live performance than audiobook

I was expecting spoken word but this was mostly a live performance that was recorded, with songs included and there are some interviews at the end. Alan is funny and has a good singing voice but I’m not one for show tunes, really.

Thoroughly Enjoyable

Excellent "show tuney", very warm and easy to listen to. Alan made his point about immigrants poignantly and was spot on.
