Hi, welcome to my website. I’m Henry Raby. I live in York, and I’m a performance poet, theatre-maker, play-wright and workshop facilitator.
I’ve performed across the country at various gigs, poetry nights, literature events, festivals and arts events, as well as toured my solo shows. I also like performing at protest camps, occupations, marches and supporting anti-racist, feminist and LBGTQ+ positive organisations.
I work freelance delivering workshops on writing and performing poetry, and I’ve written work for and with children and young people. I'm Artistic Director Say Owt, a spoken word organisation promoting live spoken word in York and co-Director of Vandal Factory, theatre company with Natalie Quatermass
I also like dancing to punk and ska when I’m not reading comics and watching cartoons.
