Seating in rows

A celebratory jamboree chock-full of daft and
Deft wordplay, community song and a selection of his drawings and cardboard
curiosities. Gape in baffled exhilaration as the much loved bespectacled poet
Lays out a treasury of new and selected potatoes for your enjoyment, drawing
on his recently published book 'A Scarcity of Biscuit'. The collection weaves
gentle fictions and fanciful meanderings around the letters of Romantic poet
John Keats...
“Keats features quite
Strongly in the narrative of this show, and it is from him that the biscuit
reference comes: he met a woman in Ireland being transported in some kind of
Kennel who the poet said seemed to be suffering from a “scarcity of biscuit”.
There are several of Hegley's distinctive drawings on slides in the show
including seven elephants, three of which we had to vote on later. It's a lovely hour of stories, music, poetry and silliness” British Theatre 4 British
