Critically acclaimed performance poet John Hegley returns to enchant us with his interactive poetic genius and silliness.

John Hegley is widely known as one of the country's most innovative comic poets with several best-selling volumes of poetry to his name. His shows are a regular sell-out at the Edinburgh Festival, and he is noted for his exploration of such diverse topics as dog hair, potatoes and handkerchiefs.
