The Poetry Link – November dates

Working in collaboration with five independent live literature producers, Writers’ Centre Norwich, through its previous programme New Writing Live, have set up a touring network across the East of England that will allow Live Literature in all its forms to thrive.

Visit the below venues for our November headliner, Luke Wright.

Biog:
Luke Wright has been described as “the best young performance poet around,” by The Observer and “visceral, poignant and rioutsly funny” by The Scotsman. He is host and curator of Latitude’s Poetry Arena and a resident poet on Radio 4’s Saturday Live. His Valentine’s Day special on Channel 4 attracted over a million viewers. His debut collection is called High Performance (Nasty Little Press, 2009).

“Positively life enhancing as well as hilarious … witty, occasionally even profound stuff here.” Bruce Dessau, The Evening Standard.
