About this Event
Like the TARDIS in Doctor Who, we’re all Bigger on the Inside.
Join stand-up poet and BBC radio regular Kate Fox on a funny, thought provoking and poetic trip through time and space as she uncovers new ways to think about labels like Autism and ADHD. She finds inspiration in Doctor Who and in the passionate happiness of neurodivergent joy.
She imagines a universe in which ‘it’s understood that energy ebbs and flows in people and spaces’ and ‘eye contact, body language and facial expressions are not policed or queried’ while taking us on a sci-fi journey of hope and healing.
Kate Fox is a stand-up poet, spoken word artist and broadcaster. She is a regular contributor to Radio 4's spoken word cabaret ‘The Verb’, has made two comedy series for BBC Radio 4, been Poet in Residence for the Glastonbury Festival and the Great North Run and completed a PhD in stand-up comedy.
She is the author of ‘Where There’s Muck There’s Bras: True Stories of the North of England’s Women’ published by Harper North, and poetry collections including ‘On Sycamore Gap’ (Harper North, 2024), ‘Bigger On the Inside’ (Smokestack Books, 2024) and ‘The Oscillations’ (Nine Arches Press, 2021).
She is also a neurodivergent advocate whose latest show Bigger on the Inside explores neurodiversity through the lens of Doctor Who.
