One of the UK's very best and busiest spoken word stars, Ash Dickinson returns to Edinburgh with a dazzling one man show of new works, old hits and winning works from 'Strange Keys', a year on from its release.
Ash Dickinson is a multiple slam champion (including Edinburgh, Cheltenham and BBC Radio). He has performed in the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Spain, Jordan, Germany and the Czech Republic. He has headlined many shows and festivals throughout the UK, been widely published in newspapers, magazines and anthologies and is in great demand to run poetry workshops. His first collection, 'Slinky Espadrilles' was the first title published by Burning Eye Books. His follow-up, 'Strange Keys', was released by the same publisher in April 2016.
