Writeidea Reading Festival 2012 (UK)

The Writeidea Reading Festival 2012 is the fourth edition of East London's unique, free reading festival. Writeidea is going from strength to strength, continuing to attract excellent authors and ever growing audiences - this year we start in style with Jonathan Coe, one of the most loved contemporary British authors, and end with Wilko Johnson, the legendary Dr Feelgood guitarist. In between, we have great events covering fiction, history, politics, poetry, identity and much more. We also continue to offer an opportunity for authors with a local connection to the East End to share the stage with best-selling names such as Owen Jones and Patrick Gale. For the first time, we also bring a live theatre performance to Writeidea Festival: 'One Georgie Orwell'. An original production that premiered at Greenwich Theatre earlier this year, combines Orwell's own words with original music, performed by a group of talented actors and musicians
