Luke Wright at The Edge Theatre and Arts Centre, Chorlton 21 April 2022 Tickets from £13.00 — Book now

Join Luke Wright for a brand-new show with deliciously funny poems set against a backdrop of pandemic politics, ageing parents, and the endless, droning culture war.

Winner of the Saboteur Award for Best Spoken Word Performer 2021, whether he’s opening for the Libertines or reciting Georgian ballads down your local, Wright is adept at taking poetry places it doesn’t normally go.

Writing poems that are tender, riotous, caustic and romantic, Wright delivers them with the ferocity and panache of a raconteur at the top of his game.

Luke Wright is performing as part of The Edge‘s Spring Season of events.
