Performing from a four-poster bed in the luxurious surroundings of Heal's department store, Manchester's Vampire Queen Rosie Lugosi and former festival slam champion, Kei Miller shared their poetic dreams and nightmares. Rosie Lusgosi, winner of an Erotic Oscar and Diva Award for Solo Performer, has published three collections of poetry, including Creatures of the Night. Jamaican-born Kei Miller’s first collection of short fiction, The Fear of Stones, was short-listed in 2007 for the Commonwealth Writers First Book Prize. He is also the editor of Carcanet's New Caribbean Poetry.
