Winter 2021

Welcome to Winter!

​

This winter I've been very lucky to:

• write a commission for Historic England celebrating high streets and going out in Wigan and Blackpool.  Watch here.

• welcome Little Amal to Wigan with a poem and a story 'How Little Amal Got So Tall.' Watch here.

• start a new writers residency at       Holy Trinity Primary school in Harpurhey, Manchester

• work with artist Laurence Payot and young people in Halton on a heritage project celebrating The Bleach Packers 

• Finished our 1 0:1 The Book of Witchin'

The Book of Witchin'

​

Saturday 27th November sees the culmination of my latest collaboration with inter-disciplinary artist Izzy Brittain.

​

We've created a form called 10:1. 

10 x 1 minute films or performances inspired by artists and exhibitions.  In 2015 we did 'The Book of Dave' a live performance of poetry, dance and live art inspired by artist Dave Pearson. Watch here.  

​

2021 brings 'The Book of Witchin' a digital performance of poetry and dance inspired by 'These Lancashire Women Are Witches In Politics' from artists Anna FC Smith and Helen Mather. More info here.
