Kate Fox, the popular stand up Radio 4 poet, is appearing at the 2011 Sefton Celebrates Writing Festival this November.
From small girlfriends to sexting, from hair straighteners to bent politicians, Kate is a Northern Pam Ayres for the Facebook age.
Kate Fox brings her new show 21st Century Fox to The Civic, Crosby on Thursday 10th November.
The shows brings us the poet and satirist unleashing her funniest, sharpest material on anyone who likes words and laughing. Warning: there may be rhyming!
A regular on Radio 4’s “Saturday Live”, she has also recently performed her satirical poems on the Radio 4 shows: “You and Yours”, “The Wondermentalist Cabaret”, “Arthur Smith’s Edinburgh Bash” and “Doggerel Bard” as well as on BBC2’s Daily Politics Show and BBC2’s Chelsea Flower Show coverage.
Her poetry has received the prestigious Andrew Waterhouse Award from New Writing North and an Arts Council Award.
She was also a finalist in the Radio 4 Poetry Slam in 2007 and won the Cheltenham Science Festival Poetry slam in the same year, as well as various other performance poetry competitions.
She has developed work as an Associate Artist at New Writing North and ARC arts centre in Stockton and undertaken many residencies including for the Great North Run, Darlington Railway Museum, Humber Mouth Festival, HMP Frankland, the Free Word Centre in London, Fest Magazine in Edinburgh and NHS leadership conferences.
Kate will be taking part in a Q & A with the audience and signing copies of her books.
Tickets for Kate Fox are £8 (£6 concessions) and available by calling 0151 928 1919 or online at www.seftonarts.co.uk
