Later Life Letter at The Assembly Rooms

Award-winning writer, Luke Wright (Pub Grub; After Engine Trouble; What I Learned from Johnny Bevan) is taking his most personal show to date on tour and publishing his story with the release of a new collection of poems with Little, Brown Book Group. Later Life Letter unpicks the true story of Wright’s adoption through a script brimming with life and the lives he could have had. Strikingly honest, funny and deeply moving, this poetic stand-up show tells a story that explores the complexities of belonging and the experiences that make us who we are, from one of the UK’s leading stand-up poets.

What’s it like to stumble across your birth mother on Facebook? How do you honour the parents who have raised you while satisfying a curiosity about where you came from? What does it mean that you married a social worker? These are all questions which Wright unpacks within a captivating hour of storytelling.
