...the show is mostly autobiographical - he says the facts may not all be true facts, but they have a grain—or maybe a crumb—of truth.

There are several of Hegley’s distinctive drawings on slides in the show— he picks out several details on which to elaborate, curiously never mentions the Dalek on the T.V. but whichever bits you get, it’s lovely stories, music, poetry and silliness,

This is a unique National poetry Day edition of the hour-long Edinburgh Fringe performance WITH 50% EXTRA to be provided by the returning and riotous Rachel Pantechnicon alongside a decent dunking of sublime songsters Diego Brown and the Good Fairy.

N.B. The show is an hour and a half long is only partly biscuit-based. Devised for adults but not unsuitable for the odd nine-year-old, it should also be noted that biscuits for humans appear only in narrative form and those presented physically, are dog biscuits and no attempt should be made to ‘try’ them.

John Hegley’s Biscuit of Destiny

Thu 1 October

ART31

ART31 takes its name from Article 31 of the UN Convention on the Rights of a Child, which states that ‘Children have the right to relax and play, and to join in a wide range of cultural, artistic and other recreational activities’.

ART31 is a vision created with, by, and for young people in Kent, championing the belief that all children and young people have an entitlement to access high quality arts and culture, to empower them to achieve their creative potential, and to genuinely engage young people as equal partners in any decision making that affects them.

The ART31 Youth Board is made up of young people from across Kent aged 13-25 who steer its governance, and influence policy and practice across the county and beyond, challenging the creative sector to examine existing ways of working and integrate young people into the core of their practice.
