When Rory Cowan stepped down from his role in Mrs Brown's Boys after 15 years, it made national headlines. Here, in his own unique voice, he tells his story – with a star turn from his greatest cheerleader, his mum Esther – and how the confidence she gave him in his early years set him on the path from mischievous teenager to national treasure. Rory's tales of growing up in 1970s Dublin are laugh-out-loud funny, but there is also sadness, as he describes his mother's dementia and the particular pain of gradually losing a loved one to such a cruel disease. A magical and moving account of a mother-and-son bond, and the unexpected progression from record-shop manager to comedy icon, Mrs Cowan's Boy is told with all the humour and warmth you'd expect from one of Ireland's best-loved stars.
