Ashbourne Festival 2023 presents Lemn Sissay OBE - Poet, Playwright, Broadcaster, Speaker. Tickets £17.50.
This will be a rare chance to see a dramatic reading of the acclaimed one-man play "Something Dark" by celebrated performance poet, Lemn Sissay.
Something Dark tells the story of Lemn Sissay’s upbringing in children’s homes and fostercare, and the search for his family and true identity. Originally directed by John McGrath (National Theatre of Wales), Something Dark has been performed throughout the world to great critical acclaim. It was adapted for BBC Radio 3 in 2005, and the following Q&A sessions have become legendary.
