Name: But I Haven't Finished Yet
Start: 2026-05-26T13:00:00+01:00
Location: Marriotts Warehouse

We are all growing older, and most of us don’t like it! But since we can’t do anything to change it, why not laugh?
Join poet Brenda Read-Brown on a riotous celebration of growing older. In her fantasies she is an imprisoned pensioner who rescues fellow passengers from crashed aeroplanes. In reality she is a bit of a hoarder who likes Greek islands. On the journey you will take in rhubarb, (not) climbing Everest, suitcases, soft-closing kitchen drawers, squirrels, and comic injuries. And you’ll find out why Brenda’s final words will definitely be ‘But I haven’t finished yet!’.
A show to delight and entertain audiences, however advanced in life they may be.
“These poems remind me of the tingles. I’m so happy to feel them; they make me want to run outside, kiss, fall in leaves and then write.” -Hollie McNish
“A seasoned and generous poet.” - Chloe Garner, Artistic Director, Ledbury Poetry Festival
Tickets are Pay What You Can
This event is suitable for anyone aged 50+ including those with long-term health conditions such as dementia, carers and people looking to create new connections!
We use a ‘Pay What You Can’ pricing structure. If you can afford to pay a little more for your place, this helps us keep lower priced tickets accessible for those who need it, and means that we can continue to put on high-quality community events like this one. Lower cost ticket options will always be available to people experiencing financial hardship who might otherwise not be able to attend.
