Here’s some photos from our recent Lava Elastic The Rose Hill of the fantastic Rikki Tarascas who provided us with a filmed version of his beatnik poet character (comedic poetry almost) delivering The Haunted Trousers - a poem in 2 parts.

Last night was a real joy with some truly fantastic performance poetry from Isabel Songer followed by the painfully funny Adam Dorr
