About ed:
Edward Tripp is an award-winning stand-up poet, with a penchant for all things dark and surreal. A frequent performer on comedy and poetry stages alike, he's taken his work around the UK from Milk Poetry, to WOMAD Festival, and Just the Tonic at the Edinburgh Fringe. Whether screaming about spatulas or soliloquising about Uncle Connor "who isn't in the IRA," Ed's an always hilarious, prop-heavy and provocative performer.

'Ed is wildly inventive and original' - Josie Long, Comedian and Writer
