Dr John Cooper Clarke
With Special Guest Mike Gary
The Godfather of Punk Poetry. A cult icon. A lyrical genius. A razor-sharp wit.
Dr John Cooper Clarke—Salford’s original punk poet performs at this year’s Southport Comedy Festival with a brand-new live show packed with classic verse, new material, hilarious ponderings on modern life, good honest gags, riffs, chat and the unmistakable swagger that’s made him a legend.
From the stages of the ’70s punk scene—sharing bills with Joy Division, The Sex Pistols, and The Clash—to the pages of the UK school curriculum, Clarke’s influence is undeniable.
