Polari Prize Tour



The Polari Prize Tour kicked off at the Southbank Centre in style last week with headliner David McAlmont (pictured with host Paul Burston). We then headed up to Newcastle for Books on Tyne with former Polari Prize winner Mari Hannah and more.

Both events were packed and received an enthusiastic reception from audiences.


Next up is Polari On Sea at The Printworks, Hastings on Dec 12 where the lineup includes Jake Arnott, Sophia Blackwell, Lesley Thomson and Mother Christmas.
