Harry Baker - An Ode To The Postcode || Spoken Word Poetry ||

Our November 17, 2023 show at the Scottish Storytelling Centre was a special collaborative show with Bad Betty Press! It featured Beth Godfrey, Jasmine Cooray, James Kearns, and Harry Baker, plus a special appearance from Jake Wild Hall. It was hosted by Kevin Mclean with music from Jack Hinks.

The commission: write a poem that makes postcodes sexy and reflects the glory of God. The poem: Harry Baker at his best!

World Poetry Slam Champion Harry Baker is a poet and a maths graduate. He writes about important stuff like hope, dinosaurs and German falafel-spoons. His work has been shared on TED.com and viewed millions of times worldwide, as well as being translated into over 20 different languages. His new collection ‘Unashamed’ was published with Burning Eye in 2022 and after a sell-out run at the Edinburgh Fringe he toured his spoken word show of the same name around the UK in 2022/3. He’s mainly just thrilled to be back on stage where he belongs.
“Harry Baker’s intricate, quick-fire rhymes have always been on the impressive side of mind-blowing” - The Scotsman
