University  of Bradford  Alumni John  Hegley presenting a spread of past and present comedy verse featuring specs, spuds and loads of loveable characters

A warm, witty and utterly unmissable evening of comic poetry, musical mischief and wry chat. Featuring a selection of John Hegley's work from his enormous oeuvre – old favourites mixed with newer work, along with the kind of optional audience participation he does best: the fun kind, that audiences really enjoy doing, not the embarrassing cringey stuff. Every audience with Hegley is a night of community – and a rollicking pleasure to boot. One of the UK's most original and endearing voices. 'Fabulously funny' (Time Out). 'Scandalously talented' (Sunday Times). 'An incurable entertainer' (Guardian).
