About this Event

Join poets Chris Campbell and Adam Elms for an hour of engaging, accessible poetry at Boston Tea Party, Stratford-upon-Avon.

Chris will read from his recent collection Why I Wear My Past to Work (Parlyaree Press), exploring themes of family life, memory and the natural world. His poems have appeared in publications including The Rialto and Magma. Adam Elms – a visually-impaired poet, playwright, director and actor who has appeared in over 60 theatre productions across the UK, Europe and Off-Broadway – will share poems that combine performance, humour and reflection.

The poets will alternate throughout the reading, moving through themes of human connection, nature and lighter, more playful poems. The event is informal and conversational, with audience questions welcomed throughout and a short Q&A at the end. Whether you’re a regular poetry reader or simply curious, everyone is welcome.

Copies of Why I Wear My Past to Work will be available to purchase after the reading, and there will be time to chat with the poets.

£5 entry (plus Eventbrite booking fee).
