Hello Hubmarine at Derby Book Festival


The literature collective I'm involved with, Hello Hubmarine, are putting on this awesome shindig as part of Derby Book Festival. Headlining is Jon McGregor, who will be reading brand new work, and we also have the wonderful Éireann Lorsung, all the way from Dickinson House in Belgium. Special guests are Mark Gwynne Jones and Mamta Sagar, on their Arts Council England-funded, Renaissance One-produced Melding Voices tour, and we have music and audiovisual tinkering from Richard J. Birkin, who will be performing his groundbreaking Songs For Spoken Words. The mighty Joe Coghlan will also be performing his rhythmic spoken word story-poems, and I will have a story or two to share as well. Eeek!

So, it's Saturday 6th June, 6:30pm doors, and it's pay-what-you-decide (you'll be given an envelope on arrival and at the end, you can put in what you'd like/can afford to pay and then drop the envelope in our special box). See you there!
