Bedlam’s Best & Finest
25 August 2020
Michael Wilson presents a poetic expose on mental illness and mental wealth.
This experimental book and one-man show received a five star review from Bouquets and Brickbats during a full run of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival:
'This deeply personal collection of poems is genuinely revelatory: there is an appealing Everyman quality to it, despite uncommon individual circumstances. I think it's in the humanity, the vulnerability, that shines through every line'
Hard-hitting, serious, but ribboned with hope and positivity, Michael's work is designed for both page and stage.
Whether you're passionate about mental health, poetry or both, you will be struck by Michael's non-linear approach to the various aspects of illness and recovery.
