Algorithm Party (CTBA) + Q&A

In Algorithm Party, spoken word artist ?Roy? (PJ Smith) reimagines his debut publication of the same name for the big screen. Algorithm Party is an authentic, forthright glimpse into working class life, told with a blunt honesty with humour and compassion. Roy?s deft, articulate and startlingly observed musings veer from the comic to the calamitous in a breath, cutting to the quick of the broad swathe of people and personalities that comprise his native city of Liverpool - from struggling parents to small-time criminals, pent-up white-collar workers to drinkers long lost to the ale.? Roy?s eye is as keen as it is generous, presenting, in the great tradition of English realism, the real lives of people up against it in all sorts of ways, muddling through, trying to make the best of it.? His debut publication, Algorithm Party, came out on Rough Trade Editions in 2020. A second collection - Boomerang Process - is released in April.? Roy is not a poet. Roy is a storyteller. ? This event will begin at the advertised time with no ads or trailers.
