Luke Wright’s Pub Grub
Front Room Weston-Super-Mare, Weston-Super-Mare, BS23 1FF
After selling out shows across the country with JOY!, Luke Wright is back with a sticky-floored celebration of the ordinary. Here the poet conjures up a world of Tuesday lunchtimes and small town boozers in poems that burst with inventive language.
Fun + filthy poems from someone who knows what they’re doing. If there were any justice he’d be Poet Laureate, or King.

Forget your “best life” come and live your worst. These are the kind of poems you can get drunk to, full of audacious rhymes, insane sonic trickery, and big-hearted storytelling. Expect loads of laughs, a few more coins in the swear jar, and a sore head in the morning.
