Jess Green: Farewell Leicester

Jess is back on our stage for perhaps the last time with a workshop at 6.30pm and an open-mic show at 8.00pm.

BBC Slam Champion, Jess Green is an award-winning performance poet and script writer for theatre and TV.  She began to garner a following in 2013 with her viral poem, Dear Mr Gove and has since performed at Glastonbury, Latitude, Bestival and BBC 6 Music Festival. She’s featured on BBC 6 Music, E4, BBC5Live, ITV and BBC Breakfast as well as in The Guardian, Huffington Post, The Independent and The Spectator. Her live shows Burning Books and A Self Help Guide To Being In Love With Jeremy Corbyn received 5* at the Edinburgh Fringe and on national tours. Jess’ stage-play adaption of Burning Books was longlisted for The Papatango Prize and toured the UK in 2018 including a performance at NUT National Conference.

4 x Pay What You Can tickets are available for this show during the cost of living crisis (available when you click the ticket link, with no questions asked about your personal circumstances).
