An Evening With: Jackie Kay

An Evening With: Jackie Kay

Poet, dramatist, writer and former Makar, Jackie Kay, joins The Lyceum for an evening exploring her writing and career in aid of the theatre. Bring your questions for the interactive Q&A session that will follow.

With a career spanning poetry, plays, children’s writing, short stories, prose and the novel, Kay is a star of Scottish literature – a true national treasure.

Jackie Kay was born and brought up in Scotland. She is the author of—among other books—The Adoption Papers, which won the Forward Prize, Red Dust Road, winner of the Scottish Book of the Year Award, Trumpet, and the Costa-shortlisted Fiere. She was the third Makar, or National Poet for Scotland (2016-2021). She is a Professor of Creative Writing at the University of Salford. Her new collection MAY DAY was published in 2024 to great acclaim.
