Episode 58: Georgie Jones

Georgie Jones is a writer and performer known for her humour and heart. She was a Roundhouse Poetry Slam finalist, before joining the Roundhouse Poetry Collective and subsequently spent a year as Roundhouse Resident Artist.

It’s all a bit Roundhouse centric this, isn’t it? But WAIT, there’s MORE! Georgie’s one-woman shows combine spoken word, stand up and storytelling and have been commissioned by China Plate, MAC, Warwick Arts Centre, In Good Company and generously supported by the Arts Council.

She has performed in theatres, at festivals and on radio stations all over the UK. She is often praised for her warmth and wit, so took her poetry to social media in search of other, more varied, compliments. Georgie has amassed over 140k followers, over 5.8 million views and her work has been shared by Malorie Blackman, Adrian Lester and British pop-rock band Bastille who said her poetry was ‘fucking brilliant’. Clang.

When she’s not peddling her own work, Georgie loves a bit of collaboration. She has worked with numerous brands to create bespoke poetry commissions, ranging from independent body-positive slow-fashion brand LAW Design Studio to the Woodland Trust and everything in between. She combines her love of writing with her love of love through offering a bespoke ghostwriting service for weddings, speeches and events.

Georgie also writes and performs with Chortle Award nominated sketch group Just These Please who have sold out runs at Edinburgh Fringe and Soho Theatre respectively.
