WHERE does stand-up comedy end and poetry begin? Somewhere in John Hegley's show.
Here he reflects on a recent painting trip to France as well as romance, painting in general and blancmange.
He is one of the country's most popular poets, comic or otherwise, managing to mix pathos and puns in a sparklingly witty combination.
John has eight best-selling volumes of poetry to his name, regularly sells-out at the Edinburgh Festival and frequently pops up on the radio in BBC Radio Four's Hearing with Hegley.
December 6, The Tower, Winchester. Performance: 8pm. Tickets: £15. Box office: 01962 867986.
