Luke Wright: Later Life Letter

Later Life Letter tells the story of Luke Wright’s adoption – the life he leads, and the one he might have done.
What’s it like to stumble across your birth mother on Facebook? How do you honour the parents who have raised you while satisfying a curiosity about where you came from? Is it telling that you married a social worker?

Wright navigates his audience through a warm and honest hour of poems and stand-up with the wit, pathos, and silliness that has made him one of the most popular live poets in England. This is a frank account of what it means to be someone’s child told by a performer who really knows what he’s doing. Expect raucous laughter, tear-stained cheeks, and a little smattering of drum n bass.

“His poems shoot arrows through the heart.” ★★★★★ List
“A sharpness and wisdom that lifts the soul and soothes the battered heart.” ★★★★ Scotsman
“A streetwise panache and a sardonic comic verve to rival Stewart Lee.” ★★★★★ Telegraph
“Honesty, humour, ire and wonder. He is at the peak of his powers.” ★★★★★ Stage
