Through a telephone conversation, participants were asked to describe their favourite places in Kings Lynn. From those descriptions, poems were made and then performed by participants with added sound effects from improvised instruments. The aim of the project was to celebrate heritage and place, using words and sounds to conjure those places without going to them. The resulting poems are collectively called King’s Lynn Serenades and together they take us on a surreal and imaginative tour of Kings Lynn from school to the swimming pool, the park and the guildhall, the walks and the fair.

Odd Comic is composed of cross-genre artists Dot Howard and Holly Bodmer, who have a passion for devising unconventional performance. They met as post-graduates at Dartington College of Arts in 2007, and now collaborate in Norfolk, sharing an interest in observational, sometimes humorous performance for intimate audiences in unusual spaces.
