'It cleared me chest something wonderful' Theatre By The Lake, Kendal
'If there's a more engaging presence on the radio than Barnsley poet Ian McMillan and a more entertaining show than Radio 3's The Verb then I don't know it' Stuart Maconie, Radio Times
'Superb. Everyone came out saying they had not laughed so much for years' Glasbury Arts
'a bewitching personality' The Guardian
PLUS support from magical ginger poet (and novelist, and woman) ANNA FREEMAN. Anna Freeman is a multiple slam champion, performance poet and an activist for ginger liberation. Her work is funny, mostly, but with a spine of genuine pain and humiliation at the inarguable fact of her own existence. Her poetry has also been known to leave a greasy after-taste of lingering wrongness. Like a kebab.
PLUS very special musical guest Lori Campbell and magical musical interludes from the incomparable DJ Dad!
