Fling Festival: 4th July

My first festival will be on 4t July in Chelmsford at Fling Festival. It marks a summer that is sure to be just as busy as last year. I’ll be performing a 20 minute set and facilitating a workshop on poetry and activism. I’ll be at a few new festivals this year, including…

Lovebox: 17th & 18th July

I’ll be performing on the Voicebox stage as a solo artist with Apples and Snakes on Friday 17th as part of The Writing Room. On the Saturday, I’ll be performing as part of Kid Glove for The Roundhouse’s Last Word section. Joining me will be Rose Swainston and Joel Auterson.

Larmer Tree: 18th-20th July

I last performed at Larmer Tree Festival in 2013 and am returning this year and hoping for the same beautiful sun! Sadly, I won’t be running a workshop this time, but I’m looking forward to bringing a mixture of old and new material to the festival.

Boom Town: 13th-17th August

I’m really excited to be performing at Boom Town this year, especially as the wonderful Sophie Fenella (also part of Kid Glove) will be there. I’ll be doing a couple of sets over the weekend.

BBC Fringe Festival Slam: 26th-29th August

I put my name in the hat for the Edinburgh Fringe Festival BBC Slam and I was the last name to be announced! I’m there for about five days and have just been planning all the shows I’m going to see and there’s about thirty shows in my calendar now, so it’s going to be pretty intense. It feels like a bit of an adventure as I’m going alone and staying in a dorm with seven other people.
