Pouring Poison

Hazel (Kathryn Hunt) spends her life describing plays for visually impaired people. But when she starts to describe the real world to her new friend Davy (Nicholas Boulton), is she giving an accurate picture of the world around her? She's looking for an escape from the pressures of looking after her disabled mother, but is she looking in the right place? 'Pouring Poison' was written by Lou Ramsden after spending time with audio describers in London theatres, and also stars Jonathan Keeble, Alison Pettitt, Marian Kemmer and Dan Hagley amongst the cast.

Reviews

Pop Babylon is a true guilty pleasure, leaving readers both appalled and longing for more. It's not the deepest book you'll ever read, but who wants Balzac on the beach?

—— City Am

A Babylonian expose of the excesses of the music industry should be required reading for all X Factor wannabes

—— Evening Standard

This is both a touching and fascinating memoir... a great read told in the comedian's wickedly witty humour

—— Hot Stars

Unlike the current glut of misery memoirs, his book... is a funny, positive read.

—— Northern Echo

Well done, have a gold star

—— Bob Mortimer
