A blitz of performance poetry
Join Apples & Snakes, the UK's leading performance poetry people, for an in-your-face extravaganza of stand-up verse. Featuring:
Kat Francois: BBC3's poetry slam champion, and winner of the 2005 world slam title. A physical, oomphy performer with a portfolio of international work and a hit Edinburgh show under her arm.
Mike Garry: poetry tubthumper and author of Mancunian Meander- a verse sequence that does exactly what it says on the tin. Described by Shaun Ryder as 'the best street poet ever'.
Thick Richard: a primordial entity whose appearance on Radio 4's Bespoken Word undoubtedly disquieted anyone who'd tuned in early for the shipping forecast. Or not, as the case may be.
Gemma Lees: the brains behind Bury's very own Litabury Festival, a thoughtful weigher-of- words, and past-mistress of putting them across.
It's the kind of poetry that creeps up behind you and does things you're not expecting.
Be there!
Entry: £7 / £4.50
