From Manosphere believer to ending up on Andrew Tates twitter Sam Browne's new show is a little bit of sad, a little bit of funny and a whole lot of poetry.

Sam Browne is a spoken word poet from Southend, Essex, who originally set out to be a stand-up comedian until he realised all his jokes rhymed and none of them were particularly funny. So he pivoted to poetry, and things started to click. Since then, Sam has developed an online following of over 100,000 followers on instagram and tens of millions of views. He has won awards for his activism work, numerous poetry slams and was more recently featured in the BBC documentary Eastenders investigates the Manosphere. He writes about masculinity, VAWG, and, less importantly, all his big feelings. He is known for his chaotic and humorous stage presence as well as his hard-hitting poetry. Some reviews of his work include “Try harder” — Andrew Tate, and “Yeah, but is it real poetry?” — Sam’s mother.
