Stage Poetry: Luke Wright and Ross Sutherland- by Amy Liptrot

Amy Liptrot considers the recent performance poetry special Luke Wright's Three Stigmata of Pacman

This is the new blog that tells you the sweetest London gigs for the next seven days. God don't like it, but we do. Take it away Chalmers.

Aaaanyway, onto the recommendations for the week!

Monday:
On Monday night I'm at Cafe Oto for Damo Suzuki with Hyrst supporting and a fantastic backing band but that's sold out so no point plugging that so I reckon Tristram, Stars of Sunday Leagu & Adelade's Cape at The Luminaire is a winning option and Fanfarlo are playing Rough Trade as well.
