John Hegley: Drawings of Dromedaries (and Other Creatures)
https://www.komedia.co.uk/brighton/spoken-word/john-hegley-drawings-of-dromedaries-and-other-creatures/
An evening of poems, drawings, stories and possibly dancing.
Included in the spectacle are a pair of Dromedaries, alongside a number of newly composed pieces touching on John Keats’s letters and leisure activities. Other animals include Monsieur Robinet’s faithful canine companion, Chirac; 19th Century American geologist Florence Bascomb’s dog; as well as D. H. Lawrence’s tortoise, puffins, cats, frogs, elephants and half a dragon.
Expect a combination of new pieces and species, and a batch selected from an extensive back catalogue. Includes some plant-based material and rhyming language. A performance devised to suit adults, but of interest to some nine-year-olds.
‘[an] exquisitely curated package that is unmistakably Hegley’ (Chortle)
