Gluten Tolerant Mike Clarke

Seven short stories by Mike Clarke, which have been selected and performed by the Liars' League, the award-winning spoken word evening. Read about: - A Bermondsey baker whose dough isn't the only thing to rise one snowy evening- An intern's impromptu elevator pitch for the most calamitous disaster movie ever- The misadventures of a yummy mummy with a dating app- DIY adult movie-making in IKEA featuring a selfie-stick- Naked photography in a hipster's Shoreditch loft kitchen- The petrol-headed rage of a spurned, knife-wielding opera singer- Lovesick rapping from the dock by a guilt-ridden, Premier League hard-man. This volume collects the texts of the 10-15 minute stories that were memorably read by actors at the award spoken-word evenings in London, Leicester and Hong Kong.(Note that transcripts of versions of some of these stories have been previously published on the Liars' League website.)
