She is obviously not Kate Bush\, Morrisey or Holly Johnson. \nWith work rooted in word-witchery and the working class\, Louise explores the synergy between poetry\, voice and movement in a way that makes the ugly beautiful and the mundane fantastical. Winner of BBC Radio 3 ‘New Voices’\, European Slam Finalist and support artist for punk legend Dr. John Cooper Clark\, Louise is a true\, Northern powerhouse. Welcome to her world of darkly humorous poetry. \n5 minute Open Mic slots available\n7pm-8.30pm\nTheme: nightclubs\, aging\, drinking\, being a mother\, dancing- like really dancing\nBook to read at this event by emailing louisethepoet@live.co.uk \nPrivate performances in the bathroom for audience of 3 people\nPerformances at 7pm\, 7.15pm\, 7.30pm\, 7.45pm\, 8pm\n£10 per ticket for the bathroom performance.

Louise has a degree in Theatre Studies and Creative Writing from Lancaster University and an MA in Creative Writing from Edge Hill University. She lectures and teaches creative writing in schools\, prisons and universities. When she is not writing\, Louise is loping around Wigan and wrangling two teenage daughters and two teenage cats. \nTake your little feelings-junkie-self on a dash through the house of fun. Here is hedonism and anhedonia a.k.a ‘the inability to feel anything’ nothing? explored through lyric poetry and dystopian prose poetry. Here are the Romantic Poets. Here are some bands from the 1980’s. Here is a bathroom. Here is a place where the super-rich get to use your organs instead of their own. Obvs. Think escapism\, mothers guilt and drink- some of it set in an alternate dimension of distorted mirrors and super-fun balloons. Dilettantes and the discerning brain are welcome here. \n\n \n More Info\n \n \n \n \n \n  URL:https://www.wiganeventsguide.com/event/the-pleasure-dome-ii/ LOCATION:The Old Courts\, Crawford Street\, Wigan\, WN1 1NG\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Spoken / Written Word ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.wiganeventsguide.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/ThePleasuredomeupdated2000x1000.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20221103T193000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20221103T213000 DTSTAMP:20240507T204440 CREATED:20220414T135605Z LAST-MODIFIED:20221026T141506Z UID:37179-1667503800-1667511000@www.wiganeventsguide.com SUMMARY:The Something New Show DESCRIPTION:The Something New Show is your monthly dose of new somethings. \nIn Bailiff Bar’s Holding Cell\, Casino Improv host a cabaret of spoken word\, poetry\, improv\, comedy\, music\, storytelling and more. \nEach show features 2 very special guests – a poet and a comic.
