Pete Cranmer
"I have had many people say it was worth coming to for the poetry alone and many were moved to tears."
Clerk to the Council
"The exceptional Pete Cranmer performs his solo show..."

"Such powerful writing and acting. To hold and engage an audience single-handedly like that was bold and fearless. Proper theatre! Loved it! Agreat night indeed!"
Nicola Esson (mac Theatre)
"A great show. In his performance, Pete's poems are not just statements, but dramatic actions, with a powerful cumulative impact.
They confront issues of life and death with a mixture of outrage and humour which leaves you breathless, wanting to go back and re-examine the thoughts that tumble out with an insistent rhythm.
The pains of love and war are counterpointed with an occasional glimpse of redemption and the frequent relief of ironical and self-deprecating humour.
A unique combination of drama,
poetry, autobiography and social challenge."
Gabriel Chanan - author and researcher
