Inter School Spoken Word Workshops and Showcase
On Friday 19th March from 1.30-3.30 p.m., the final showcase of Wordsmith 2010, the interschool poetry slam, will be taking place at the Bluebox Theatre, Nell Lane in Chorlton.
For six months, teams of young poets have been trained in their schools ready to battle it out in this poetry showdown.
The schools involved are Burnage High School, Cedar Mount High School, Chorlton High School, Our Lady’s RC High School, Parrswood High School, St. Peter’s High School and Xaverian College.
The poets who have nurtured these young talents number amongst the great and the good of the Northwest’s glitterati: Mandy Coe, Mike Garry, Chris Jam, Shirley May, Segun Lee French, Yvonne McCalla, Yusra Warsama.
Poetry mentors from Young Identity, the Contact Theatre poetry collective, have aided and abetted this development of over 60 young fertile minds.
Expect sensitive, rhythmical, explosive, lyrical, poetry!
We are grateful to Aimhigher for their support.
