Nick Hennegan's Bohemian Britain
Lifestyle tales from the city
‘Literary London’ on Resonance 104.4fm and BohemianBritain.com
Nick Hennegan celebrates the birthday of one of the most famous writers of all time – Thomas Stearns Eliot. With contributions from Y.B Yeats… and Taylor Swift!
You’ll never guess where I am. For the wedding of a very old chum. And in a glorious local pub, where I had ‘afters’ on me first night there! Just got back to me digs! #Pubs rock!
After the Edinburgh Literary Pub Crawl, we’re back in Soho and Fitzrovia, London. With lovely LitCrawlers from Norfolk, Swindon… and Bromley!
We’ve SOLD OUT next week. But join us the Saturday after!
Cheers!
A new season of ‘Literary London’ on Resonance 104.4fm.
Nick Hennegan talks to Torin Douglas about the Chiswick Book Festival in West London. This event features workshops and sessions with Jeremy Vine, Jeremy Hunt, Reeta Chakrabarti, and Jeffrey Holland. You can also attend sessions with Gill Hornby, Lyse Doucet, Fee Man, Sam Cullen, and others.
Pretty Literary Pub of the day.
The Lyric Hammersmith Theatre Bar, before the crowds arrive. A great place to write. Sir Kenneth Branagh cut his acting teeth here and our own Nick Hennegan is a regular writer here too! 📕🍺
And this is not a sponsored post. Nick just really likes it here! https://lyric.co.uk/our-home/eat-and-drink/
 A Dramatic Headline, right? (But it really IS dramatic. Also I’m learning about this social media thing! Even though this is an email!) Yes. We only have FIVE Days left to save West London. Well, The People’s Company, anyway..! The R.S.C., National Theatre and others will be tutoring our BIG production that ANYONE can be involved with in London in early 2026! As you may know, the Maverick Theatre Company is all about access to the arts. And this is a unique way for ANYONE who wants to have a go at ANYTHING to do with theatre: on stage, backstage, front of house, set design, marketing, producing, directing, music-making, social media, acting, etc. to have a go! No qualifications or experience are needed – just a desire to have a go! If you want in – you’re in! And you will be tutored by some of the best names in the business, including the National Theatre and the R.S.C. – FOR FREE! BUT we need to raise the funds to make this happen. AND WE’RE NEARLY THERE! I know things are tight at the moment. But if everyone who receives this newsletter was able to commit just £2, we’d be fully funded! But again, I know things are tight so please don’t worry if even £2 is a stretch at the moment. But the Birmingham People’s Company produced some brilliant experiences, stories and encouragement to future artists. Many of that company are now working in theatre and the arts. We now want to repeat that experience in West London. Please click here for the video and more information or click the link below to go to our Peeps Co page on our website. You rock! Love (and manly hugs!) Nick.x Nick Hennegan. Artistic Director and teaboy. nick @ mavericktheatre.co.uk And I’m also at www.BohemianBritain.com AND we’re back now from the Edinburgh Fringe… so see you in Soho every Saturday! www.LondonLiteraryPubCrawl.com Click for more details of Maverick’s Peoples Company |

Well that’s a wrap on the 2025 Edinburgh Festival Fringe!
Our Edinburgh Literary Pub Crawl went well and we have hundreds of new ‘Crawler’ friends. So it’s goodbye to Bobby Davro and John Slater for a bit. Although spare a thought for Slater and all the other crew folk who now have to put Edinburgh ’back to normal’!
The Literary Pub Crawl now returns to London!
Join us, every Saturday at 5pm! www.LondonLiteraryPubCrawl.com
