About Carol Ann Duffy and John Sampson
For just three special shows, newly created for 2021, together again to celebrate the return of the Fringe. Carol Ann is one of the most respected poets in the English language. John is a virtuoso multi-instrumentalist with a highly individual, humorous touch. Two rare talents meshing and contrasting delightfully in performances, matured over many years of international touring, that leaven serious and profound themes with detours down the byways of absurdity. Wit, wisdom and wonder delivered through consummate verbal and musical dexterity. At last, the genuinely thought-provoking entertainment we've all been hungering for.
Venue 195: NCP Castle Terrace Car Park, EH1 2EW
