‘Fourpenny Circus’ and ‘Bunch of Fives’

 

Joy Winkler’s interest in writing and performing spoken word and her new play ‘Lightning under their Skirts’ with award-winning director Kevin Dyer, was sparked by working with other former Cheshire Poet Laureates.

Their first show with Kevin Dyer was ‘Bunch of Fives’ (2008) followed by ‘Fourpenny Circus’ (2009) before Joy Winkler and Andrew Rudd worked on ‘TOWN” (please see separate webpage).
