The Poet Paul Hamilton (A.K.A The Actor Kevin Eldon)

Former member of Cluub Zarathustra Paul Hamilton does not very often return to the stage. For one night only, he recently appeared on stage in Battersea, showcasing his more recent work.

He opened his performance by stating he’d not been this angry since 1984, and though he still hasn’t lost his intolerance to the crowd, he also hasn’t lost any of his talent.

Reading from work such as “Writer's Block” and “Spain”, Hamilton spat his bile across the arena, infusing his poetry with a raw energy almost bordering on lust.

And ladies, he’s single.

**Paul Hamilton is played by TV comedy deity Kevin Eldon. The character is a brilliantly realised parody of all performance poetry, which never fails to win over a crowd. If you ever get the chance to see him… run! (I’d set off now if I were you, just in case)
