Bridget Hart is a performance poet who gravitates towards DIY punk as her inspiration and main audience. She has performed across the country, in a variety of both literary and DIY spaces including the Royal Albert Hall, Cheltenham Literature Festival and LOUD Women Fest. She has worked with punk bands and incorporates her poetry into a staple of the UK punk scene. At the same time, Bridget has brought listeners to attentive silence with deftly constructed poems about women’s experiences in real and imagined lives.
