GUEST POET Alvin Culzac
I have performed Poetry and Songs at events all over the South East and London. It is something that I enjoyed doing. I have performed at Ronnie Scott’s, The Poetry Society, the Paxton Centre and many more. My poem ‘The Apocalypse’ won an award as the best Eco Poem in 2014 and it is still relevant to this very day. I have also been Quince in Shakespeare’s ‘Mid-Summer Nights Dreams.,’ and I have been a sailor in the Musical; South Pacific’
and sung in the Choir of the Opera ‘Push’ when it was Premiered at the DellaWarr Pavillion. And I spent six months filming as an Extra on Warner Bros., Fantastic Beast 2
