Groundswell is delighted to bring Harry back to Newquay, after his hit-show "I am 10,000" landed at SproutSpoken in 2021.
And this time with his new show "WONDERFUL", he's hot on the heels of headlining the Royal Albert Hall last year with Kae Tempest and George the Poet!

WONDERFUL (2.0) - about the show...
"May one thing match the gravity
Of all you’ve ever done.
This wonderful reality:
The best is yet to come."
World Poetry Slam Champion HARRY BAKER is back and more full of wonder than ever. Celebrating wellies, postcodes, funerals and fertility journeys, his combination of playfulness, vulnerability and irrepressible hope has reached millions online and now he is back for more. Building on last year's 40-date sellout run, Wonderful 2.0 hopes to make you cry with laughter, laugh through tears, or dream scenario: both. The show will contain old faves as well as brand new work, celebrating what a thing it is to live a life.
