About this event
Part stand-up, part-poetry, part storytelling: "Like watching John Cooper
Clarke snog Pam Ayres while John Hegley watches" (BBC Radio). Spoken Word,
Words and Wordplay! Gavin Robertson is Greg Byron - whose words engage on
a range of subjects, from satirical to science, via modern life and
comedy, with a smile, a grimace and a wry pointy finger! His 55-word prose
can be twisted or absurd, his 'character portraits' use words to paint
pictures of people. From witty to wistful, come join the playfulness and
the passion! ★★★★★ "compelling to watch" - The Guardian. ★★★★★ "Byron is a
Masterful performer" - Reviews Hub. ★★★★ "Byron is engaging, warm,
offering each poem as if we were old friends" - Broadway Baby.
