About Ben Macpherson Does Poems at Adults
Adults often have ears. Ben Macpherson has poems. It's time to put those together with you in the driving seat. You're in complete control of the show picking from 30 vibes, be that silly, sordid, sad or sweet. With poems covering everything from the world's best cheese to the intimate lives of cartoon characters, Ben Macpherson has the poem for you. Blending friendly chat with style and genre, Ben is a verbal tour de force, bound to leave you laughing, crying and so much more. “Absolutely Delightful” - Hollie McNish “Dazzlingly, Dizzyingly Brilliant” - Brian Bilston “Full of Humour and Drive” - Michael Rosen “Ben Macpherson is a joy” - Caroline Bird "Ben’s brimful of wit and panache” - Michael Pedersen "I had a blast watching Macpherson's show, it's a marvel to see an artist pour so much love into their craft. I loved the concept of choosing poems off the wall, and I loved their variety even more. Lovers of spoken word, please go and witness it yourself" Panos Audience member
