“Maybe I’m strange, but I want to ask whether
I’m the only one who wishes more people cried together?”

An extraordinary and enthralling collection exploring life, personal development and wellbeing by the Glastonbury Festival poet in residence and two-times Saboteur Award-winning Best UK Spoken Word Performer.
