Byron Vincent

Instagramming The Apocalypse

In association with Writers' Centre Norwich

This is a past event which has now ended.

‘WTF is going on? I mean seriously? We’re a nation divided. Our heroes are dropping like barbiturate-riddled flies. Our youth hate themselves so much they exist through digitally manipulated avatars. It’s hard not to feel like the end is nigh and that our positive efforts are mere farts in the ether.’

Byron Vincent was raised to believe that cynicism is cool, modern life is rubbish and that sincerity is for suckers; but as a drowning world punches a solitary fist through an ocean of plastic forks, maybe it’s time to re-evaluate that perspective. In a post-satire age, what’s so funny about peace love and understanding?

This is a scratch show – experience an unfinished show and offer ideas and feedback to the artist.

‘Byron Vincent plays with language like it lives, he has the ability to stretch words almost to breaking point then snap them back to meaning like nothing ever happened. He tells funny hard poems about things that are true’ Kate Tempest

Arts make life better

Norfolk & Norwich Festival brings tens of thousands of people together in celebration – it has been doing this for 250 years. Through our May Festival and our year-round arts education work, focusing on children and young people, we lead and support celebration, creativity and curiosity in communities across Norfolk and the region.

This year we begin an exciting new initiative, Festival Connect & Create that will bring creative opportunities to those schools and communities with least provision. Creativity transforms people’s lives. It builds cohesive communities, develops vital skills and supports health and wellbeing. We want more people to have access to creative opportunities.

Please consider donating to support and develop this work. With your help we can increase access to the life changing power of the arts.
