Helen Mort showcases her acclaimed ‘A Pint for the Ghost’ . Her performance involves a sequence of eerie poems and short stories inspired by South Yorkshire legend: a night-time encounter with the ghosts of worked out mines, smoky pubs and deserted highways. The show is set in a lonely pub, after last orders, where strange characters come to introduce themselves. It was written in 2009 with support from the Escalator talent scheme and developed into a theatrical show with the help of Menagerie Theatre Company.Five times winner of the Foyle Young Poets Award, Helen Mort was writer in residence for the Wordsworth Trust. A Pint for the Ghost was published by Tall Lighthouse Press. Her first full-length collection, Division Street, will be published by Chatto in 2012. She lives in Sheffield.
Kim Moore and Gaia Holmes will also be reading a selection of their poems. So please come along. It promises to be another interesting evening. Ian Parks will be doing the introductions and there will be the usual refreshments and music.I look forward to seeing you there.
All the best for now
