Luke Wright: Poet and Man

Luke Wright is the true alternative laureate. The leading light of a new wave of stand-up poet taking the noble art by the scruff of the neck and turning it into something that can delight audiences from comedy clubs to literary festivals.

The 2007 4Talent award winner has two five star solo Edinburgh shows under his belt. His debut, the multi-media Luke Wright, Poet Laureate took the 2006 Edinburgh Fringe Festival by storm prior to a sell-out national tour and scooping a clutch of 5 star reviews.

Luke Wright, Poet & Man is an altogether more grown up affair, leaving visual gimmicks behind, it is a warmer, more reflective show and has won it’s author new fans, whilst collecting a ‘Spirit of the Fringe Award’ along the way.

Now, with a new wife, a cat and a more considered bathroom approach, it’s time for the voice behind Truly Madely Deeply, (a love song to Richard Madely) and I Don’t Get Out of Bed For Less Than Ten Grand to come of age. So -- how does a poet become a man?
