Sound and Form with Luke Wright

Poet Luke Wright leads an engaging, fast-paced poetry workshop.
Discover how you can use rhyme, metre and other sonic devices to make your spoken word pieces sing.

Featuring examples by John Cooper Clarke and the OULIPO poets. A rare chance to work with one of the UK’s leading performance poets.

After a quarter of a century on stages across the world Luke Wright is a poet and raconteur at the top of his game.

Both brazen and elegiac, Wright’s poems pull on the tidy hem of responsible existence to unravel the frustrations of the family, politics and masculinity in 21st century Britain.

He marries his inventive writing with breath-taking performance skills to take audiences on an incredible emotional journey. He’s the regular tour support for John Cooper Clarke and often MCs shows for The Libertines. He’s a regular on Radio 4 and has won a Fringe First for writing , a Stage Award for performance, and four Saboteur Awards.

“His performances rumble with rage, passion and humour.” Guardian

“Extraordinary and eloquent.” Scotsman

“Hitting his stride as a cultural figurehead.” Telegraph

“Cool Poems” Patti Smith
