SUICIDE NOTES… The Spoken Word Of Christopher Brett Bailey to Embark on National Tour

Following the success of his award-winning "cult hit" THIS IS HOW WE DIE, Christopher Brett Bailey returns with a new different-every-night, shouting and reading show Suicide Notes... the spoken word of Christopher Brett Bailey.

Beginning on 26 April 2018, Christopher Brett Bailey tours his new spoken word show across the UK - a live action short story collection for the depraved, the depressed and the death obsessed.

To coincide with Oberon Books releasing a collection of Bailey's short works, he takes that text on the road; delivering a linguistic kaleidoscope of caustic cartoons, crackpot prophesies and demented erotica. From verbal diarrhea and dirty jokes, to venomous poetry and nightmarish tall tales, Bailey will perform different sections of the book each night, creating a unique experience for performance goers.

When asked why no two nights on the tour will have the same set-list, Bailey said, "A better question might be why have all my previous works slavishly strived to repeat last night when no two moments on this crappy planet are ever the same!"

Audiences are met with a potty-mouthed poet, a reverend with a forked tongue, and a standup comedian from hell, delivering a symphony of verbal adrenaline and twisted humour, in the form of stories and poems.

Christopher is a writer, performer, theatre-maker and musician. His critically acclaimed solo debut THIS IS HOW WE DIE received the Arches Brick Award, an Off West End Award, and was shortlisted for Stückemarkt, Berliner Festspiele 2016. Performance credits include associate artist of Made In China, work with BBC Radio 4, Unicorn Theatre and collaborations with Andy Field, Mamoru Iriguchi, Glen Neath & Hannah Ringham and the late great Ken Campbell. Bailey is also half of ambient music duo Moon Ate the Dark, and leader of guitar-noise project THIS MACHINE WON'T KILL FASCISTS BUT IT MIGHT GET YOU LAID.
