About this Event

This show is an average guy’s guide to making new friends. Join award winning poet and performer Lewis Buxton in a story about sport, sit coms and socialising. He’ll write poems for his best mates, confess his darkest secrets and with his trade mark welcoming wit, ask how on earth does a man in his thirties make new friends?
