This year we celebrate the centenary of the great Scottish poet W.S Graham, who lived most of his adult life in Cornwall, especially his relationships with the legendary crop of St. Ives artists of that time. Kneehigh actor Tristan Sturrock will be reading W.S Graham’s poem ‘The Nightfishing’ to accompany a solo dance piece by Luke Antysz. The piece has been specially commissioned for the festival to mark the centenary. In partnership with Guillemot Press, Falmouth University and others, the Bodmin Moor Poetry Festival presenta a fantastic and varied line-up of poets and artists including Liz Berry, Mark Ford, Eilean ni Chulleanain, Vahni Capildeo, Luke Kennard and many more.
Held at Sterts at Upton Cross, 25 – 27 May.
