Luke Wright's Cynical Ballads - Seven Caustic Tales from Broken Britain

Luke Wright has been hailed as performance poetry's key revivalist. Heis a regular on BBC Radio 4's Sony Award-winning Saturday Live and was featured in Channel 4's Seven Ages of Love. In his brand new show, Luke shines his light on obese teenagers, jadedchip shop proprietors and posh twits with the luck of the devil, as he leads us through the run down shopping precincts and airless television studios of modern Britain. Each poem is backed by macabre projected illustrations as Luke makesmincemeat of his anti-heroes with rollicking, darkly comic verse. Expect screaming tabloids, suicide and lashings of Bollinger in a show that will shock and delight. Unity One
