Robin Ince: Weapons of Empathy
Seagull Theatre at 9:30 PMWeapons of Empathy is Robin Ince’s latest show. It mixes tales of books, libraries and bookshops with original poetry and some jokes too. Inspired by his book Bibliomaniac, described by Eric Idle as “one of the most delightful books I have ever read. My mind expanded…”
Winner of the Rose d’Or and Arthur C Clarke award, Robin is co-host of the long running science series The Infinite Monkey Cage, in which he interrupts Brian Cox when he starts to confuse people with his equations. Robin might even reveal Brian’s top secret skin care regime.
Weapons of Empathy is one of our Sundown Events: a series of ticketed events that keep the festival going in town once the beach site closes at Dusk on Saturday Night.
