PURPLE RONNIE'S STAND-UP POETRY CLUB

A night of poetry's legends. And Luke Wright.

JOHN HEGLEY - Hailing from Luton, this singer, poet and stand-up is an Edinburgh Festival stalwart who's performed all over the world for over twenty years. He now has nine books, two albums, many a BBC Radio series and one mug to his name. He has appeared on countless TV shows, and been best described as having a "beat poet's style and philosopher's grace." He is without doubt, one of Britain's best-loved entertainers.

ATTILA THE STOCKBROKER - Inspired by the spirit and ethos of punk his themes are topical, his words hard-hitting and his politics is unashamedly radical. He is able to simultaneously make you roar with laughter and seethe with political indignation. His cult career has produced 14 albums, many a John Peel Session and an appearance on Melody Maker's cover.

LUKE WRIGHT - As ever, your host is this young fellow. Described as "the best young performance poet around" by The Observer, Luke is also host and curator of Latitude's Poetry Arena and resident poet on Radio 4's Saturday Live. His Channel Four Valentine's Day special attracted over a million viewers.
