Apples and Snakes presents Big Talk
A carnival of spoken word and poetry with open mic, national guest poets and poetry films. A chance to experience some of the most engaging, insightful and entertaining poets in the UK sharing their wit and wisdom in the intimate and atmospheric setting of the Tom Thumb Theatre.
Featuring:
Mark Gwynne Jones
Five times fringe-award winner, Mark Gwynne Jones is well known for mind altering poetry with an almost music-hall edge. He mixes humour and poignancy with great skill and through collaborations with film-makers and musicians he is pushing poetry in new and exciting directions. Mark’s work is contagious, gritty and at times startlingly sensitive.
‘Inspired… one of the most accomplished performance poets in the land…drawing the audience into a world where things are not quite what they seem’ The Guardian
