Tours

The writers ANTHONY JOSEPH and ADISA tour in 2009 - 10 following the launch of a new poetry collection 'Bird Head Son', and spoken word show, respectively.

Adisa's new spoken word show covers the momentous music, movements, protest and societal changes in 1968 and features writing about situations, movements and artists including Roger McGough, Robert Kennedy, Nina Simone and Alan Ginsberg. During 2009 and 2010 he tours with renaissance one to Ilkley Literature Festival, Off The Shelf Festival, Artsdepot, The Drum and the Chapter and Verse Festival.

'I believe 1968 was more than a year To me -- it was a superhero. A cross between Flava Flav and Malcolm X Wearing a giant clock with no hands. Just the words -- Wake up!!'

words by Adisa, from '1968: The Year That Never Ended'
