Thursday 16th July, 2009The true alternative laureate, 4Talent award winner and Aisle16 founder Luke Wright will be bringing his trademark tour de force performance poetry to Latitude Festival.
He has been called “the best young performance poet around” by the Observer and “visceral, poignant and riotously funny” by the Scotsman. Wright brings poetry and satirical comedy together to shine a light on society’s idiocies and complexities; tackling themes of growing up (‘’Poet & Man’), love (TV film ‘Seven Ages Of Love’) and more recently the endless bad writing which bombards everyday life in his book ‘Who Writes This Crap’ co-written with Joel Stickely.
Verbal and visual gags collide with an acerbic verse; Wright is one of the UK’s poetry heavyweights and he co-programmes the poetry bill and hosts it all at the festival!
