Poet and comedian, John Hegley, heads up a cabaret of musical and lyrical mischief in support of Bring Back British Rail, a campaign group seeking to bring the railways back into public ownership.
The benefit will take place at the Green Door Store in Brighton on Sunday, December 20 from 7.30pm.
John, a performance poet, comedian and musician well-known to audiences of BBC Radio 4 and Edinburgh Festival, will be joined by Blyth Power, a folk rock band who emerged from the early 80s punk scene and have gone on to release a dozen albums of powerful anthemic songs.
Opening the night are The Lovely Brothers, a Brighton-based cabaret punk band who blend the vaudeville music of The Tiger Lillies with satirical lyrics and ridiculous costumes.
