The Art of Not Letting Go

The Art of Not Letting Go is a comedy poetry show performed by Richard Thomson, a man deep into his fifth decade, taking in everything from his first kiss to his first child, to the inexplicable meanders that led him to roam the aisles of Lidl seeking salvation. There are poems about lost chances, lost love and lost partners (in IKEA). Described by Spork Spoken Word as 'Fabulously uplifting, warm, joyous and very funny', Richard is a multiple poetry slam champion who has headlined poetry events across the south west of England.
