Description:
Touring his Alive and Gigging show, covering the Mersey-soaked sound of his quintessential 60s start, through to tender meditations on fatherhood and family, and on to political sendups, pandemic playfulness and brilliant new writing. A performance poet like no other, he is bringing his best pieces to the stage for new and old audiences alike. Aged 87, he is a force of nature – and poetry. Is poetry the new rock’n’roll? …It always was! ‘The patron saint of poetry’ (Carol Ann Duffy). 'McGough has done for poetry what champagne does for weddings’ (Time Out).
