‘The Tay Bridge Disaster’ Join Dundee's very own national bard, William Topaz McGonagall, as he performs dramatic readings of his most ludicrously bad poetic gems. Unintentionally hilarious! The Poet McGonagall will also treat audiences to personal reminiscences of his life and exploits across Scotland, and even as far as America! Jonathan Goodwin performs this one-man production.
‘The Raven and other Gothic poems’ We invite you to spend the evening with master of the gothic, Edgar Allan Poe! He will perform dramatized readings of his greatest and most famous poetic works, including ‘The Raven’, as well as other eerie verses from other masters of the macabre Christina Rosetti, and Samuel Taylor Coleridge. Jonathan Goodwin plays Edgar Allan Poe in this haunting production.
‘Nonsense Verse’ Silliness and absurdity are in the air as Jonathan Goodwin portrays Edward Lear and Lewis Carroll (though not at the same time) in this one-man celebration of nonsense. Expect ‘The Owl and the Pussycat’, ‘Jabberwocky’, ‘The Hunting of the Snark’, ‘The Mock Turtle's Song’, ‘The Dong with the Luminous Nose’ and many more.
