Poet and entertainer, Justin Coe, brings the wild inside with a not so common or garden variety of wacky wordplay, silly stories, puppet-enhanced verse and interactive fun and games.

Even the very youngest of participants get a chance to spin the whizzy-wordy-wheel, grow poems of their own and create and illustrate crazy creatures to adorn our indoor garden’s golden Poet-Tree. There’s sure to be plenty of shouting out and moving about – and for the adults, an opportunity for a spot of indoor sunbathing.
