Detours: Ross Sutherland at Open Eye Gallery
6.30pm
Free, booking essential
Award-winning author Ross Sutherland (Times Top Ten Literary Star) plays a short piece from Byrne’s legendary 1987 TV series, layering a new story from his own life over the top of it. “I’m Just A Lonely Guy” was the b-side to “Tutti Frutti” on Little Richard’s original release of the song.
This Detour is a response to John Byrne at the Open Eye Gallery.
