Craig Chalmers returns to the Edinburgh Fringe ten years after his debut, this time as a Hammer & Tongue 2021 grand finalist. In this solo spoken word show, he performs some 60 poems in 50 minutes — short, funny and a wee bit sad. Described by audiences as 'bizarre, abstract and hilarious', the show also features 'heartfelt, tender prose'. Staged at the Back Room and completely free to attend, it is suitable for ages 18 and over.
Why see this show?
Sixty poems in 50 minutes, free of charge — Craig Chalmers keeps things short, funny and unexpectedly tender. If you like spoken word that doesn't take itself too seriously, this is a brisk and rewarding way to spend an evening at the Fringe.
