Larkin with Women by Ben Brown is a funny and touching new play, looking behind the façade of 'the Bard of Humberside', and into his complex private life.

It's 1956, and Philip Larkin, one of England's most famous post-war writers, has just arrived in Hull as the University Librarian. Over the next thirty years, his life there will be dominated by three women.

In this funny and touching new play, we see behind the façade of 'the Bard of Humberside' and into his complex private life.

Larkin With Women premièred at the Stephen Joseph Theatre, Scarborough, in November 1999.
