An Evening with Larry Lamb

An Evening with Larry Lamb: Poetry, Stories & Conversation at Brantwood

Monday 5th October 2026 6.00pm

 Join us for a very special evening with acclaimed actor and presenter Larry Lamb, as he brings his deeply personal poetry and stories to Brantwood.

Enjoy a hearty bowl of homemade chili (meat or vegan) in our Terrace Café before taking a seat in John Ruskin’s beautiful Drawing Room for a relaxed evening of poetry, conversation and memories in one of Cumbria’s most atmospheric and intimate literary settings.

Before and after the event there will be a chance to meet Larry personally and purchase a signed copy of his autobiography, Mummy’s Boy.

With limited places available for this unique literary evening, book now to avoid disappointment.

The evening reunites Brantwood’s Director Howard Hull and Larry who last met to discuss life and poetry together on Ruskin’s bench at Brantwood’s Gold Winning stand at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show earlier this year.

Tickets are £35.00 pp inclusive of your meal.

Larry Lamb is one of the UK’s most recognisable actors and presenters, with an extensive career spanning television, film and theatre. He is perhaps best known for his appearances in high-profile BBC productions including EastEnders and Gavin & Stacey, as well as work in film, on Broadway and in London’s West End.  More recently, Larry has turned his attention increasingly towards poetry, drawing on his own life experiences to create deeply personal work.  His autobiographical poetry collections are due to be published in 2027.
