The best festival listings calendar, previews, reviews, and photos

Following the huge success of his Silver Jubilee show, Luke Wright returns to Henham Park this summer with a new set of poems that get to grips with the idea of JOY.

The French novelist Henry de Montherlant said that “happiness writes white” but Wright’s not exactly starting with a blank page. Writing urgently and warmly about family, fatherhood, and the joy of language itself, Wright invites audiences to contemplate the possibility of pure, unbridled happiness. Come let a little joy into your life with a raconteur and wordsmith at the top of his game 🖋

“Breathtaking… with a sharpness and wisdom that lifts the soul, and soothes the battered heart.” —- The Scotsman

“Honesty, humour, ire and wonder. He is at the peak of his powers.” —– The Stage
