Luke Wright

Luke’s world premiere of Cynical Ballads was one of the highlights of last year’s festival – so we’re delighted to welcome him back this year, when he’ll be treating us to another exclusive debut: We’re All In This Together. He’ll also be introducing more “extremely entertaining poets” from Nasty Little Press.

Co-founder of poetry collective Aisle 16, Luke satirically formed the UK’s only ‘Poetry Boyband’ alongside a number of fellow poets. He’s also Radio 4’s poet-in-residence for the show Saturday Live and was involved in the Channel 4 documentary Seven Ages of Love. His energetic performances and unique blend of comedy and poetry are not to be missed.

“Luke Wright shapes verse from the leading edge of the rejuvenated spoken word scene. Comic, acute, rhythmic eulogies to modern life”
