An evening with The Special Relationship, featuring Bad Language and Comma Press

London’s The Special Relationship is the polymath of literary evenings. Seeking out those rare folk who can write and perform, their nights regularly feature poets, authors, playwrights, journalists, comedians, film makers and even the odd rock-star. As far as we’re concerned, The Special Relationship presents the perfect antidote to the pre-Christmas build up.

This evening sees The Special Relationship‘s first visit to Manchester where they’ll be overseeing the seasonal short story antics of Bad Language, films with darkly festive themes and previews of Comma Press’ new and exciting literary app, Morphologies and the 2013 Short Story Day. We all know it’s far too early to be Christmas shopping; come and have a drink with us instead! Click here to get your tickets in advance.
